Born on 24 October 1985, Wayne Rooney is a British football manager and former player who spent much of his career as a forward. Rooney rose to global football glory when he was very young; he made his first professional appearance with his local club Everton aged 16.
After two years playing for Everton, he transferred to Manchester United in the summer of 2004. Rooney was just 18, and the transfer fee was the greatest amount ever paid for a teenager in the world at the time.
