Wayne Rooney is calling it quits with the England national team after the 2018 World Cup, according to BBC. Speaking to the media, the 30-year-old captain said his mind is made up.
"Come Russia, I feel that will be the time to say goodbye to international football," Rooney said. The player has played 115 matches for England, scoring 53 goals. Come that World Cup, Rooney will be 32. Playing in top-tier leagues in Europe, 35 is an age most don't reach playing, so 32 sounds like a good age to stop playing internationally while still likely playing club soccer.
