What is Wayne Rooney's Height?

Wayne Rooney, precisely 5ft 9 (175.3 cm) tall, embodied the 'bulldog' build in professional soccer, contrasting with taller, leaner 'greyhound' players of his era. His compact stature fueled his powerful, aggressive playing style as a forward.

• Debuted for Everton at 16, becoming one of England's youngest Premier League goalscorers.
• Starred for Manchester United, winning five Premier League titles, an FA Cup, and a Champions League trophy.
• Earned over 120 caps for England, serving as captain.

Now a manager, Rooney's height perfectly suited his tenacious career, weighing around 80-82kg at peak fitness for optimal power and presence on the pitch.
