WAYNE ROONEY celebrates his 40th birthday on Friday.
-
Here, we dig out some memorable stories about the former England and Manchester United captain.
Derby delight
Rooney's bicycle kick against Manchester City in 2011 was voted the best goal of the Premier League's first 20 seasons. It also helped the striker win the goal of the season award on the BBC's Match of the Day for a third time.
Once a Blue...
He joined Everton, the club he supported as a boy, at the age of nine. A Toffees' scout had spotted him playing for Copplehouse Boys' Club on the pitches where Liverpool's Walton and Kirkdale Sunday League was played. He scored 99 goals in his final season.
Big Nev chipped
At the age of 10 he was Everton's mascot for the Merseyside derby against Liverpool. He gave a glimpse of his potential by chipping the Toffees' Wales goalkeeper Neville Southall in the warm-up.
