He has paid his dues. England’s all-time top goalscorer Wayne Rooney has retired from international football after turning down the chance to be part of the squad for the World Cup qualifiers.
The Everton striker turned down England boss Gareth Southgate invitation to be involved against Malta and Slovakia. His words:
“Every time I was selected was a real privilege but I believe now is the time to bow out.”
The 31-year-old former Manchester United captain scored 53 times in 119 internationals.
