Wayne Rooney was born on the 24th of October, 1985. He is known all over the world by people who love football. He is, of course, the striker for Manchester United and England. Many people say he’s the best centre forward in the world. English people are hoping he can use his amazing talent to bring them the World Cup trophy1 in South Africa. He will be a player to watch.

Rooney was born in Liverpool. He grew up supporting his local club Everton. He signed for Everton schoolboys when he was ten. He stayed with the club and made his Premier2 League debut3 in 2002. His first goal for Everton meant he was the youngest player ever to score a Premier League goal. It came five days before his 17th birthday. He made a big impact at Everton and interested Manchester United, who signed him in 2004.

Rooney has established himself as a world class player at Man. Utd. He has broken many records in his time there and played with many top players. His signing fee of ￡25.6 million is still a world record for a teenager. He helped United win three league titles, two League Cups, and the Champions League title in 2007-08. He also won England’s Footballer of the Year award in 2010.

Rooney made his England debut in 2003. He shot to world fame at the UEFA Euro 2004 tournament where he scored two outstanding goals. He has established himself as England’s first choice striker and is sure to pose4 a threat to all defences in South Africa. He hopes to have a very different World Cup experience to Germany 2006, when he was sent off for a foul5 on a Portuguese6 defender7.
