Rooney wedding likely to be ‘next summer’

WAYNE Rooney is “likely” to marry his childhood sweetheart Coleen McLoughlin next summer, sources revealed yesterday.

No precise date has yet been fixed for the Manchester United star to tie the knot with his long-term girlfriend but the nuptials are likely to have to work around England’s fixtures in the Euro 2008 tournament.

The news follows the completion of a £1.5m (€2.18m) deal with Hello! magazine earlier this month to exclusively cover the couple’s big day.
