Wayne Rooney 'is set to STAY on as Derby County boss' after pictures surfaced of the former England striker passed out in a hotel room with semi-naked women

Wayne Rooney is set to stay on as the manager of Championship club Derby County after the former England striker was pictured passed out in a hotel room with semi-naked women.

The Manchester United legend has had the spotlight firmly on him in recent days after photographs emerged appearing to show the 35-year-old asleep in a hotel room with the women. He has since alleged he was blackmailed.

Rooney, a father of four who has been married to childhood sweetheart Coleen since 2008, reportedly joined the group of girls at a room at the Staycity hotel in Manchester after a night out.
