His benching has been one of the topics of the 2016/17 season so far and now, Arsenal boast odds of 8/1 with Ladbrokes to provide an escape route to Manchester United’s Wayne Rooney, report The Express.
According to The Sun, Jose Mourinho has reportedly told Rooney to look for a new team if he wants to play regular first team football and naturally, talk over potential suitors has already began.
Starting last week’s Europa League victory over Fenerbahce, the England international had been a substitute on four consecutive occasions leading up to that game.
Also starting England’s recent World Cup Qualifier against Slovenia from the bench, Rooney no longer appears to be central to United’s immediate first team success.
With Arsenal currently 8/1 to hand Rooney another crack at the Premier League, Everton are currently 9/2 to pull off a sensational transfer reunion with the player starting his senior career at Goodison Park back in 2002.
However, the favourites to land Rooney right now emerge from Major League Soccer with both LA Galaxy and New York Red Bulls boasting odds of 7/2 and 4/1 right now.
