Wayne Rooney may be due for another £30,000 hair surgery

He's due to captain England against San Marino tonight. And maybe the skipper would be well advised to avoid making any headers.
Wayne Rooney appeared at a post-training press conference yesterday, displaying a thatch that seemed to be showing the same vulnerability as his famed metatarsal. Inset in top photo shown here is Wayne's hair before the surgery and his improved hair in earlier in 2012.
It’s a year and a half since Rooney paid £30,000 for a hair transplant.
He had the 'follicular transfer' treatment – in which hair follicles are extracted from lush patches and reinserted where hair is thinning – at a London clinic.
He said at the time he was delighted with the result, and, in the months immediately after the operation, he boasted a relatively thick crop.
But on yesterday’s evidence there’s been some unwelcome thinning taking place.
Perhaps the Manchester United star, whose wife Coleen announced this week that she is expecting their second child, is considering a return to the clinic.
In an extract from his autobiography published last month, the 26-year-old football star explained that going bald undermined his confidence which is why he opted for the transplant.
He said, 'You don't want to lose all your hair, certainly not in your 20s anyway. So I thought about what I was going to do and started thinking, why not get a hair transplant'.
Meanwhile Mrs Rooney showed no signs of slowing down yesterday as she strolled to work on a photo shoot for the Littlewoods spring/summer 2013 collection.
The Rooneys will have little time for vanity as the coming months will be all about preparing for the new arrival.
The couple, who live in a £4 million mansion in Cheshire, already have a three-year old son called Kai, born in Liverpool in 2009.
And Mrs Rooney, who was raised a Catholic, has said she would like to follow in the footsteps of fellow footballer's wife Victoria Beckham by having a big family.
In an interview last year she said: 'I'd like to have maybe three or four children. I'd be happy to be a full-time mum'.
Earlier this week Mrs Rooney who is due to give birth next May took to the social networking site Twitter to announce the happy news.
She wrote: 'A few people guessed so news is out. Me, Wayne and Kai are thrilled that we are expecting a new addition to our family around May time'.
Mr and Mrs Rooney married in Italy in 2008 after a five year engagement. They started dating when they were sixteen years old, when Coleen was still at school.
