Rooney clashed with Sonejee in England’s 3-0 win in the European Championship qualifier against Andorra 18 months ago.
Sonejee said: “Rooney was using the F word then said ‘I’m a star player’ and insulted me, then I insulted him back.
“He was thinking ‘who are Andorra?’ Rooney was arrogant.
“He is very hot and aggressive. He said things to me and I said them back.
“But I insulted him in Spanish so he probably didn’t understand.
“It’s important for us to be physical and, in this game, I will try to do better than last year.
“Since then he’s become a European champion with Manchester United. But all that does for guys like us is motivate us to work harder.
“Rooney’s a fighter but so am I and I’ll try to put him under the same mental and physical pressure to see whether he’s up for it.
“If England show any lack of respect they are going to suffer.
“As soon as a team lacks respect the game stops being superstars against part-timers and reverts to 11 versus 11, that’s when anything can happen.”
