adminrequest, despite newly retired manager Sir Alex Ferguson publicly insisting that he had asked to leave the Old Trafford giants.
Rooney fears the United fans may struggle to forgive him and it now seems almost certain that the 27-year-old will leave this summer.
Big-spending French champions PSG head the queue of interested clubs although Monaco, Chelsea, Arsenal and even Manchester City are watching developments closely.
England striker Rooney had been hoping to start discussions about a new contract, yet United appear to be pulling the rug from under his feet — and that could force him out.
Ferguson dropped Rooney for United’s biggest game of the season, the decisive second leg of their Champions League last-16 tie against Real Madrid.
Despite the denials, that episode made it clear that he could be on his way out.
Summer signing Robin van Persie has also eclipsed Rooney as United’s main man up front.
Fergie’s tough tactics may end up sparing his successor David Moyes the difficult task of having to justify the sale to fans, as the former manager would take the full blame.
The Mirror understands that Ferguson had even explored using Rooney as bait in an incredible player-plus-cash swap deal to bring Manchester City keeper Joe Hart to Old Trafford.
Ferguson is a big admirer of Hart and felt his unhappiness under Roberto Mancini gave him a chance of snatching him. — The Mirror.
