Manchester United captain, Wayne
Rooney has asked a big favour of new
manager, Jose Mourinho which will
keep him at the club till the end of his
career.

According to Manchester Evening
News, “Rooney has been talking
about an Old Trafford extension
and his new role in the team”.

The publication reports that Rooney
wants to finish his career at
Manchester United by signing a
new contract. Thirty-year-old
Rooney is already United’s highest-
paid player and still has three years
remaining on his current deal after
signing a five-year agreement in
2014.

But latest reports say that he would
like to sign a new contract and see
out his playing days at Old
Trafford.

“I have a contract at the club that I
want to see out and wouldn’t be
against extending it – but that’s up
to the club,” he was quoted as
telling United We Stand.

Rooney is also looking accepting of
the fact his game will continue to
change under new manager Jose
Mourinho.

The Liverpool-born United and
England captain has dropped into
midfield for club and country and
added: “All players’ games develop
and change over time — look at
Giggsy towards the end of his
career compared to the beginning.
“What I can say is I will continue to
develop my game and adapt and
improve throughout.

“Over time and with experience,
you see the game and experience
the game differently, which leads to
different decisions.

“I think my record shows I have
always enjoyed assisting goals as
much as scoring them and I also
enjoy the involvement from deeper
positions.”
