Wayne Rooney will clash with his former Manchester United teammates in the first round of the Carabao Cup after Derby were drawn to play Salford.
Derby boss Rooney will go head to head at Pride Park with the 'class of 92' – with the likes of Gary Neville, Ryan Giggs and Paul Scholes all current shareholders of Sky Bet League Two side Salford.
Sheffield United will play Carlisle at Bramall Lane, while Premier League clubs not involved in European competitions and relegated West Brom and Fulham will enter the draw for the second round.
