Wayne rooney statement

From Dan Roan's twitter (@danroan) :
Seems certain that when Sir Alex meets Gill today 'the door will be closed' - ie Rooney put up for sale - by Jan 1 he'll be at Che or City
 
Apologies if posted elsewhere but Robbie Fowler seems to have been coming out with some very odd stuff, presumably he is just taking the opportunity to seriously take the piss out of united.

It may be a massive long shot - or more likely a light-hearted publicity grab - but Robbie Fowler claims he is doing his best to convince Wayne Rooney to join him at Perth Glory.

Fowler, a former England striker and a legend at Liverpool during the height of his career, claims he spoke to the Manchester United star about joining Perth during a recent two-week holiday back home in the UK.

Rooney is on the lookout for a new club after a serious falling out with Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson.

Manchester City, Real Madrid and Barcelona are the favoured new homes for Rooney.

But in what is proving to be a PR bonanza for the Glory, Fowler is using his star power to attract Rooney's attention.

"It's probably only just come out lately about Wayne Rooney (wanting to leave) but being in the football know, I found out a couple of weeks ago," Fowler said.

"So I just had to go home and see whether he would be interested in coming to Perth.

"And the signs were good. Really pleased with the chat we had and we'll see where it takes us.

"He's very, very interested.

"I told him what a lovely place it is.

"I told him everything about the city.

"So he's umming and ahhing at the minute but it's looking good mate."

Fowler's tone was serious during the short audio interview on the Perth Glory website.

But it's safe to say the bid for Rooney's services is little more than a PR exercise for the embattled Glory, who are reeling after five straight losses and the recent standing down of coach Dave Mitchell.

While Glory owner and mining entrepreneur Tony Sage is a mega-rich man, even he would be spitting cornflakes at the money needed to lure Rooney, who reportedly earns $A144,755 a week in his current deal at United.

And with Rooney still under contract, a Glory spokesman was quick to point out the club had not made an official approach to Manchester United.

Perth found themselves in hot water last year when media reports suggested they had approached former England striker Kevin Phillips, who at the time was under contract with Birmingham.

"Well if and it's a big 'if' Wayne Rooney was out of contract and Robbie Fowler could pull some strings we would love to have him at Perth Glory even as a guest," Glory deputy chairman Lui Giuliani said.

"If I said four years ago that Robbie Fowler would be playing for Perth Glory I'm sure many people would have had a laugh."

While Rooney is pie in the sky stuff for Perth, their ambitions for a top-four finish this season remain a reality despite their record losing run.

The Glory are just three points adrift of fourth spot and will fancy their chances in Sunday's home clash with winless Sydney FC, who sit last on the table with just four points from 10 outings.
