Man Utd ace Rooney gambled away £65,000 in two hours

Manchester United star Wayne Rooney went on a recent gambling spree, it has been revealed.

The Mirror says Rooney lost an astonishing £65,000 in just two hours after hitting a casino at four in the morning.

The soccer hero went on the betting spree after flying home from scoring twice for England in the World Cup qualifier in Belarus.

Rooney, 23, jetted back with his team-mates after the 3-1 win and went straight to the members-only club in Manchester to play blackjack and roulette at £500 a go.

His losing streak only ended when the club closed at 6am.
