Dispute between Wayne Rooney and Andy Carroll

Overview

Disputes have emerged between former England footballers Andy Carroll and Wayne Rooney regarding allegations made in Carroll’s autobiography, ‘Owning It’. Carroll claims that during the 2010–2011 period under manager Fabio Capello, Rooney hosted informal gatherings in his hotel room involving alcohol and cigarettes to break the monotony of international training camps.

Rooney has denied these allegations, describing them as a ‘complete fabrication’ and a ‘falsehood’. He asserted that he and Carroll were not close and had only met incidentally. The situation escalated as Rooney’s legal team issued a letter to the book’s publisher, Pan Macmillan, demanding a retraction of the statements, while representatives for Carroll indicated he would not be ‘bullied into changing his version’ of events.
