Wayne Mark Rooney (born 24 October 1985) is an English professional footballer who plays for and captains both Manchester United and the England national team. He has played much of his career as a forward, but he has also been used in various midfield roles. Aged nine, Rooney joined the youth team of Everton, for whom he made his professional debut in 2002 at the age of 16. He spent two seasons at the Merseyside club, before moving to Manchester United for £25.6 million in the 2004 summer transfer window. Since then, with Rooney in the team, United have won the Premier League five times, the UEFA Champions League once, the FIFA Club World Cup once, the FA Community Shield three times and the Football League Cup twice. In September 2013, Rooney scored his 200th goal for Manchester United. He is currently on 237 goals, making him the club's joint-second top goalscorer of all time.〔("Man Utd v Bayer Leverkusen" ) BBC Sport. 17 September 2013. Retrieved 17 September 2013.〕 His 187 Premier League goals make him the competition's joint-second top scorer of all time. Rooney made his senior international debut in February 2003 aged 17, becoming the youngest player to represent England (a record since broken by Theo Walcott) and he is England's youngest ever goalscorer. He played at UEFA Euro 2004 and scored four goals, briefly becoming the youngest goalscorer in the history of the European Championship. Rooney has since featured at the 2006, 2010 and 2014 World Cups and is widely regarded as his country's best player. He has won the England Player of the Year award three times, in 2008, 2009 and 2014. With 51 goals in 109 international caps, Rooney is England's all time record goalscorer and fourth most-capped player.

In 2009–10, Rooney was awarded the PFA Players' Player of the Year and the FWA Footballer of the Year. He has won the Premier League Player of the Month award five times, a record only bettered by Steven Gerrard. He came fifth in the vote for the 2011 FIFA Ballon d'Or and was named in the FIFPro World 11 for 2011. Rooney has won the 'Goal of the Season' award by the BBC's ''Match of the Day'' poll on three occasions, with his bicycle kick against rivals Manchester City winning the 'Premier League Goal of the 20 Seasons' award.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Wayne Rooney wins Premier League Goal of the 20 Seasons award )〕 == Early life and education == Rooney was born in Croxteth, Liverpool to Jeanette Marie (née Morrey) and Thomas Wayne Rooney.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Wayne Rooney )〕 He is of Irish descent and was brought up as a Roman Catholic with younger brothers Graham and John;〔("Rooney's Brother Set To Play For Ireland" ) Sky News, 15 April 2008〕 all three attended Our Lady and St Swithin's primary school and De La Salle School.
