Last updated : 17 November 2016 By England Mad

A statement issued on behalf of Rooney, 31, called the images "inappropriate".

The FA, meanwhile, says it will review its policies around players' free time.

Rooney's statement:

"Naturally Wayne is sorry that pictures taken with fans have been published. 

"Although it was a day off for the whole squad and staff, he fully recognises that the images are inappropriate for someone in his position.

"Earlier today Wayne spoke privately to both Gareth Southgate and [FA technical director] Dan Ashworth to unreservedly apologise.

"He would like to further extend that apology to any young fans who have seen these pictures."
