Wayne Rooney given two-year driving ban, 12-month community order for drink-driving

Everton striker Wayne Rooney has been given a two-year driving ban and a 12-month community order after admitting a charge of drink-driving.

The former England captain pleaded guilty at Stockport Magistrates court on Monday.

Rooney, who reportedly expects to be fined two weeks' wages by his club, must complete 100 hours of unpaid work as part of his community order.

Jose Mourinho's side won 4-0 on Sunday in Rooney's first match against United since he returned to Everton in July.
