Wayne Rooney has lifted the lid on his extraordinary attempts to quit Manchester United in 2010 and insists Sir Alex Ferguson 'got out as quick as he could' when he realised the club were on the decline.
Rooney's incredible career has been detailed in a brand new Amazon documentary, which is released on Friday, with the legendary striker giving a never-before-seen insight into his career and private life.
Alongside his wife Coleen, the now-36-year-old discusses the pressures of growing up in the spotlight, major tournament failures with England, his struggles with alcohol and the infidelity that nearly ended his marriage.
