Footballer Wayne Rooney has been charged with drink-driving in the UK.
The Everton striker (31) was stopped by police while driving a black VW Beetle in Cheshire at 2.00am on Friday.
Rooney, whose wife Coleen is pregnant with their fourth child, has been released on bail and is due to appear at Stockport Magistrates' Court on September 18th.
A picture was posted on Instagram just after 10.00pm on Thursday showing Rooney and cricketer Jack McIver at a bar in Alderley Edge.
Mr McIver wrote: "International Break #legend."
The post was deleted as reports of Rooney's arrest surfaced after 11.00am on Friday.
The Liverpool-born player retired from international football in August having captained the Three Lions since 2014.
Rooney, of Collar House Drive, Prestbury, is England's all-time top scorer with 53 goals.
He rejoined boyhood club Everton this summer after 13 years at Manchester United.
