Wayne Rooney's job as manager of Championship club Derby is 'on a knife edge' after pictures emerged of him partying in a nightclub and hotel with three 21-year-old women as police drop investigation into his claim that he was being blackmailed for £10,00

Wayne Rooney's position as the manager of Championship club Derby County is said to be 'on a knife edge' 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.
