The Mirror reports he was stopped by police near his home in Cheshire on Thursday night, after an evening out.

Rooney, 31, announced his international retirement last week, after 53 goals for his country in 119 appearances.

He re-joined his boyhood club Everton in the summer, and scored in each of his opening two Premier League games following his return from Manchester United.
