A FINLAND faced England while showing off his bizarre tattoo of Wayne Rooney.

The Aberdeen star's tattoo pictures Rooney, wearing his famous No10 shirt, casting his fishing line into a lake, with a mountainous landscape in the background.

The image also features two figures on either side of the retired striker, holding their fingers up.

Keskinen, 21, grew up as a United fan, with Rooney his favourite player.

And he clearly loved the Red Devils and England record scorer so much, he wanted him permanently inked on his body.

Keskinen moved to Aberdeen in the summer from Finish outfit HJK and became the club's second most expensive signing ever.

It is reported that the Scottish club paid £860,000 for the striker.

He said: "To be honest, it is not such a wonderful tattoo because I designed it myself.

"It has become a bigger deal than I thought it would, especially since I moved to Scotland.

"I have always liked the style of British football. If I get tattoos, I want them to mean something.

"I was a United fan as a kid and also Rooney - and I also love fishing."

Keskinen is yet to score for Aberdeen in the SPL but did net on his debut in the Scottish League Cup against Queen's Park.

He has earned one cap for Finland so far in his career and could now face up against England and Harry Kane.

Kane on the other hand will be landing his 100th cap for the Three Lions.

The striker has scored 66 goals for his country and has admitted that he is targeting a century.

England made a winning start to their Nations League campaign as they beat Ireland 2-0 at the Aviva Stadium.

And the Three Lions continued that trend against Finland and Keskinen as Kane marked his milestone match with a brace.

Harry Kane reveals his favourite England goals

HARRY KANE is already England's all-time record goalscorer.

But the Three Lions skipper will NOT be stopping there.

To mark his 100th cap for his country, Kane spoke to SunSport's CHARLIE WYETT about some of his special England goals....

FIRST ENGLAND GOAL

“My debut v Lithuania. March 2015.

"There was a lot of talk in the build-up to that camp because I was playing well for Spurs.

“I got a great reception and within a couple of minutes I scored a goal.

“I don’t think I could have dreamed it any better.

“My friends and family were there. That was a really special night.”

FAVOURITE ENGLAND GOAL

“It’s between two, for me.

“Against Germany, the one at Wembley in Euro 2020.

“Also, the header against Tunisia at the World Cup in 2018.

“That moment of scoring a last-minute winner at my first World Cup was special.”

BEST ENGLAND GOAL

“The one I scored in Poland away in a World Cup qualifier in 2021. It was from 25 yards.”

(Kane picked up the ball from Kyle Walker, advanced towards goal and put his foot through it.)

“It kind of drifted away and it was a good strike, probably my furthest-out goal for England.”
