Wayne Rooney says he will not walk away from his position at Derby despite admitting he doesn’t know what players he will have available for the start of the season

There is no suggestion that Rooney acted inappropriately, or even that he was aware what was going on around him.

People close to Rooney have confirmed to Sky Sports News that the matter has now been handed over to Greater Manchester Police, who have yet to comment.

Rooney is about to start his first full season in charge at Derby, having narrowly kept them in the Championship last season, after taking over from Phillip Cocu.

However, he has warned that he will be unable to field a team unless the club makes significant signings.
