Although Mourinho has raised the prospect of a third bid for Wayne
Rooney following the game,
Manchester United have made it clear that he will not be sold. Moyes has dismissed the possibility of the player’s omission against his suitors, revealing that he has a “good chance” of making his starting XI.
Manchester United have made it clear that he will not be sold. Moyes has dismissed the possibility of the player’s omission against his suitors, revealing that he has a “good chance” of making his starting XI.
“Wayne has got a good chance of playing,” Moyes said. “He’s got a good chance
of playing against Chelsea, a good chance of starting.”
Rooney, who returned to United duty following injury with a substitute
appearance against Swansea City last Saturday, has made it clear to Moyes
and United that he wishes to leave Old Trafford following the breakdown of
his relationship with former manager Sir Alex Ferguson.
With Rooney unsettled and seeking a new challenge, Chelsea
manager Mourinho has lodged two unsuccessful bids of £20 million and £30
million for the 27-year-old this summer in an effort to tempt United into a
sale.
Senior figures at United are bracing themselves for further attempts at
destabilising Rooney and Moyes’ team from Chelsea and Mourinho ahead of the
game, but Moyes is understood to have no concerns over Rooney’s state of
mind should he be selected.
