Rooney's future has been shrouded in doubt since the end of the 2012-13 season when then-United boss Alex Ferguson revealed the forward had handed in a transfer request.
Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho subsequently went public with his desire to land the England international, but saw two bids rejected amid David Moyes' protestations that the Old Trafford outfit had no desire to sell.
And he has now taken to his official Facebook profile to express his gratitude, writing: "Here’s some pictures from Monday night’s game. It was an unbelievable reaction from the fans, so thank you. I really appreciate your support. It means a lot."
However, the forward reportedly set his sights on a departure after failing to start last season's UEFA Champions League last-16 second-leg defeat to Real Madrid.
