Former England captain Wayne Rooney was today charged with drink driving after being pulled over while taking a 29-year-old brunette home in her Volkswagen Beetle.

The 31-year-old striker was seen dancing on the tables and singing Oasis songs in the Bubble Room bar in Alderley Edge, close to his £6million home last night.

He posed for selfies with fans and was later stopped by police while driving a black car, owned by an officer worker from Salford, Greater Manchester, just after 2am.

According to the Daily Mail, a source close to Rooney confirmed he was on an ‘all-night session’ with Wes Brown and others and then offered to help the single woman because she was ‘too drunk to drive’.

After leaving the venue, Rooney was pulled over while driving a black VW Beetle and was arrested by officers. A source told Metro that he was three times over the limit.

He was granted bail and was spotted wearing last night’s clothes after spending the night at Middlewich Custody Suite.

Cheshire Police, meanwhile, confirmed they have charged Rooney with driving whilst over the prescribed limit.

Rooney before the start of the season, re-signed with boyhood club Everton after spending 12 years with Manchester United.

The 31 year old also announced his retirement from international football last week after scoring 53 goals in 119 appearances for England.

Since his return to Goodison Park, Rooney has scored two goals in three games.
