WAYNE Rooney was told off by police for breaking the coronavirus lockdown with repeat offender Kyle Walker, we can reveal.
The former Manchester United and England ace, 34, was collared for breaking social distancing rules with the Manchester City full-back.
The pair, who are next-door neighbours, were enjoying an early evening stroll with their families on Friday when they bumped into each other.
A female cop, who was nearby on another call, pounced and gave them a telling off before ordering them to go home separately.
A source said Rooney had taken two of his four kids to Prestbury golf course for a walk.
England defender Walker, 29, was also walking the course with his model ex, Annie Kilner, 27, and their three young children.
