Just 23 years old and it seems he’s conquered it all. Youngest scorer in Premier League, youngest scorer for England, highest paid teenager ever, and if this was not enough he is getting better and better with time just like vintage wine.

Though he was born in Liverpool, he hates Liverpool football club. So he joined Everton during his school days as a part of Everton’s youth team. He made a debut for Everton in the 2002/03 season. He scored his first goal against Arsenal which was a winner and stopped Arsenal’s 30 match unbeaten run.

Rooney was much big a player for Everton and needed a bigger club to spread his wings. He was finally signed by one of the greatest club in the world, Manchester United FC for ₤25.6 million in 2004. He scored a hat trick on his Manchester United debut.

Last year Rooney got married to his childhood love, Coleen. Soon he will become a father as announced by his Coleen, earlier this year.

He plays a pivotal role in all Manchester United matches. Though he is a striker, you will find him everywhere on the field.
