The Story

Few players have captured the imagination of Everton supporters quite like Wayne Rooney.

Having burst onto the scene as a teenager, Rooney quickly established himself as one of the most exciting young footballers in Europe. The 2003/04 season saw him continue his remarkable development at Goodison Park before earning a place in England's squad for Euro 2004, where he became a global superstar.

This shirt comes from the final full season before Rooney's move to Manchester United and represents a significant chapter in Everton's modern history. The famous ROONEY 18 nameset is particularly nostalgic for supporters who witnessed his rise through the club's academy.
