WAYNE ROONEY is set to splash out £150,000 on a new walk-in wine room at his £20million Cheshire mansion.
The former England captain and wife Coleen bought the 120-acre plot of land for £4.3m three years ago and the building work is almost finished.

Wayne and wife Coleen will be able to enjoy their favourite luxury bottles in the comfort of their very own bar, complete with climate control
And the Mirror report the luxury pad will be completed with the classy wine room.
Style mag Livingetc described a walk-in wine room as “the ultimate at the top of our wish list” and it appears the Rooneys have followed the mag’s advice.
It is understood the feature will be fitted on the lower ground floor of the house which will also boast a TV room, snooker room, cinema, gym, spa bath, swimming pool, plunge pool and steam room.
And as well as the ideal climate control settings, the room will feature subtle lighting and a bar so Wayne and Coleen, both 34, can enjoy their favourite bottles in style.
Rooney – who is a hero for the Reds at Manchester United and now the Whites with Derby County – will have easy access to some of the finest wines around with premium suppliers Hammonds not too far away, the report adds.
Work is back underway at the Rooneys’ new Cheshire home – mocked by some for looking “like a Morrisons” – after being put on hold by the coronavirus crisis and the couple, who have four sons, hope to move in later this year.
As well as a state-of-the-art security system, the couple are said to be having an underground tunnel installed and a bunker where they will keep a getaway electric car.
The safety precautions are being taken after the family suffered an attempted burglary at their old £6m home in 2016.
Earlier this year, The Sun Online reported that Wayne was even having a full-size football pitch installed at the epic property.
The ex-England star has laid down the artificial pitch in his back garden – complete with a dug out and changing rooms – while there will be two fishing lakes at the front of the property.
Rooney is also hoping to make the home a golfer’s paradise with full-length holes, a pitch and putt course and a driving range.
A source told The Sun: “Wayne is golf mad and his older sons enjoy the game as well. He’s got a little putting area at his current place.
“But with all the land available at his new place, the gardeners and designers will have free reign.
“He wants a couple of full-length holes with bunkers, water features, buggies — the lot.”
