Wayne Rooney reportedly arrested on suspicion of drink-driving

The incident allegedly occurred on Thursday night.

Wayne Rooney has been arrested on suspicion of drink-driving, according to a report in The Mirror. According to the report published on the newspaper's website, the Everton player was stopped by police in Cheshire on Thursday night following a night out.

The 31-year-old is, of course, not with the England squad to face Malta away on Friday night and then Slovakia at home on Monday evening after announcing his retirement from international football last week, after a record 53 goals and 119 appearances for his country.

The former Manchester United man still lives in the Cheshire area following his move to his boyhood club Everton this summer.
