WAYNE ROONEY could be set to move into a stunning £12million Washington DC mansion... complete with wine cellar and home gym.

The former England star, 32, has been in dominant form in recent weeks with new side DC United following his move across the Pond.

Now the Rooneys could become the new neighbours for Ivanka Trump and the Obamas in the capital city.

Wayne and Coleen - along with sons Kai, eight, Klay, five, Kit, two and Cass six months - are said to be eyeing up an incredible new home in one of Washington's most exclusive areas.

The gorgeous home in Wesley Heights is tipped to set-back any potential buyer a whopping £12m.

However, with Roo pocketing £300,000-a-week in the US, that shouldn't be too much of a stretch for the Everton and Manchester United legend.

The house itself comes complete with a wine cellar, home gym, outdoor swimming pool, recreation room and even a massive cinema screen.

Both Wayne and Coleen have been spotted house-hunting in the US capital in recent days as they prepare to move their four kids over to the States.

Rooney could be in it for the long-haul over in America after a blistering start to life with his new team.

With DC United on the brink of missing out of a play-offs spot, Rooney made an outrageous last-ditch tackle, followed by a pin-point assist as they snatched a 3-2 win over Orlando City.

Roo followed that up with two goals, including a stunning free-kick, in a 4-1 win over Portland Timbers.

However, it's not all been easy for England's all-time record scorer.

Earlier this month, Rooney was left needing five stitches in his face after a gruesome clash of heads left him covered in blood.

But, being the battler he's renowned to be, Rooney has not only played on, but thrived as DC United continue their unlikely quest for a post-season spot.
