Wayne Rooney is highly unlikely to leave Manchester United next week and has been left surprised by José Mourinho’s claim he could do so, though the forward is set to depart in the summer.
Rooney, who missed Wednesday night’s 1-0 victory at St-Étienne
which confirmed United’s progress to the last 16 of the Europa League,
is determined to try to see the season out, so unless United actively
tell him he can depart or there is a lucrative last-minute offer from
China’s Super League before its window closes on Tuesday, he will remain
at Old Trafford.
Nonetheless, his agent, Paul Stretford, has flown to
China to see if he can negotiate a deal for his client to leave United,
most likely at the end of the season.
