Captain Wayne Rooney
will not face disciplinary action following his late-night conduct while on
England duty.
The Manchester
United striker apologised over “inappropriate” pictures of him a day after
England’s World Cup qualifying win over Scotland.
The Daily Mirror has
reported the FA found Rooney was invited to a wedding reception and that there
was no curfew.
Rooney, 31, has been
assured from “high levels within the Football Association” that he will not be
charged.
An investigation
followed the publication of images in The Sun which it said showed Rooney drunk
at a party late on Saturday, 12 November.
The FA is also
looking into claims several England players were out until late on the same
Saturday night after the 3-0 win over Scotland – less than three days before
they drew 2-2 with Spain in a friendly.
England’s players
all reported back at 11:00 GMT on the Sunday as they were instructed to, and
attended training in the afternoon.
England players have
since been banned by the FA from having nights out while on international duty.
