WAYNE ROONEY ATAKIWA KUANDIKA BARUA ENDAPO KWELI ANATAKA KUONDOKA OLD TRAFFORD.

Uncertainty: Wayne Rooney's future is still up in the air despite his return to training.

Wayne Rooney anatakiwa kuandika na kupeleka barua ya kuomba kuondoka katika klabu yake ya Manchester United.

Mshambuliaji huyo wa United yenye maskani yake Old Trafford alirejea jana jumatano mazoezini huku hatma yake ya baadaye bado haifahamiki.

Imefahamika kuwa bado hajakutana na meneja mpya wa klabu hiyo David Moyes kuzungumzia juu ya hali hiyo.

Inadhaniwa kuwa mkutano huo huenda ukafanyika hii leo alahamisi katika kituo cha mazoezi cha cha klabu hiyo Carrington.

Wawili hao wamezungumza lakini si kwa muda mrefu huku ikiarifiwa kuwa msimamo wa United haujabadilika.

Wanasema mshambuliaji huyo wa England hayuko sokoni. Msimamo huo unaonekana kuondoa tetesi za wiki iliyopita kuwa wapinzani wao katika ligi kuu ya England 'Barclays Premier League' Arsenal kuwa walikuwa wakitarajia kupata huduma ya mshambuliaji huyo.

United haikufanya mawasiliano na klabu hata moja ambazo zinadhaniwa kuwa na uwezo wa kumnunua Rooney.

Njia pekee ambayo inaweza kubadilisha hali mambo, ni endapo mchezaji huyo atalazimisha hilo. Wakati wa kuelekea kumalizika kwa msimu uliopita Rooney alipendekeza kwa meneja wa wakati hyuo Sir Alex Ferguson kwamba kuhama kwake kutakuwa ni kuelekea kule anako kupenda.

Maombi ya kimaandishi yatamaianisha kuwa Rooney ataachilia mbali pesa anazodaiwa za kipindi chake cha miaka miwili iliyosalia ya mkataba wake kiasi cha pauni £250,000 kwa wiki.

David Moyes

Phil Neville huenda akaungana na Moyes United.

Moyes anataka kumchukua mlinzi wa zamani wa United Phil Neville kuungana naye katika timu yake ya ufundi, akiwa na matarajio kuwa Rooney atakubali kusalia huku japo bado kuna mashaka.

Wakati msimu wa usajili wa kiangazi ulipoaanza mshambuliaji huyo wa zamani wa Everton alionekana kuanza kujipanga kuanza upya chini meneja aliyemlea wakati alipokuwa Goodison Park.

Wakati Moyes anatarajiwa kuongea na waandishi wa habari kwa mara ya kwanza Ijumaa hii huneda ufafanuzi ukatolewa punde.

Rooney anaonekana kutaka kupewa maneno ya kumfariji kutoka ndani ya klabu katika kuondoa hali uhasama kwa lengo la kumlinda na hasira za mashabiki.

 

He may well get that from Moyes and new chief executive Ed Woodward when United leave on a pre-season tour next week.

If Rooney does decide to stay, though, the issue of a new contract could prove tricky. With two years left on his deal, he will have to sign a new one by the halfway point of next season if United want to protect his value in the transfer market.

No return: At least not yet, for Cristiano Ronaldo.

However, the club are keen to see how he performs before opening talks and it is unlikely he will be offered the same lucrative terms.

Meanwhile, Rooney’s former team-mate Cristiano Ronaldo continues to keep his options open in the face of interest from United. The Real Madrid forward admitted on Wednesday he wants to return to the Premier League but did not say when.

Ronaldo said: ‘I really miss English football. For me it was one of the best years in my career when I was there at Manchester United. It is the club still in my heart. I really miss it. But now my life is in Spain. I’m enjoying playing there too. The future we never know.’
