Everton forward, Wayne Rooney has been charged with drink-driving, the Cheshire Police said.
The former England international was arrested around 2am, after police officers stopped a black Volkswagen Beetle on Altrincham road, Wilmslow.
Thereafter, the 31-year-old was charged with driving whilst over the permitted limit.
He has since been released on bail and will appear in court on the 18th of this month.
