Wayne Rooney's career in a documentary

Wayne Rooney will also have his documentary: "Rooney". The current Derby County player/coach, who has become legendary for setting the goal record with both Manchester United and the English national team, will receive a treatment that will automatically direct him among the "football goats".

Through personal archival footage, interviews of his teammates and images taken from United's all-access cameras, the career of one of the most iconic players in English football will be deepened, as well as a man who, because of his ''excesses'', has been nicknamed ''Wazza'' by his teammates, making an explicit reference to the whimsical Gazza Gascoigne. It will start from his professional debut at the age of 16, up to the arrival at the court of Sir Alex Ferguson passing through his fluctuating relationship with fans and press, up to the choice of becoming the captain/coach of the Derby.

The documentary will be produced by Lorton Entertainment, the same house that produced ''Maradona'' and ''Make Us dream'' - the 2013/2014 Liverpool documentary -, and directed by Matt Smith, former director of ''Rio Ferdinand: Being Mum and Dad'', confirming that at the base of the production there is some experience in football.

It is not the first time that the now 35-year-old is in front of the cameras, having already lent his face for the series "Street Striker" and for the documentary "Rooney: The Man Behind the Goals", but nevertheless declares to be enthusiastic about the approach that was given to the next release: ''This is a film that analyzes my journey in detail: highs, lows, my game and finally I have the opportunity to show the person I really am''.
