Rooney offered £100m AFTER TAX in China

Page 2 of 3

posted on 8/3/16

I think people on here are avoiding logic in the desperate hope that Rooney will leave for huge swathes of cash.

He is on £250k a week (or so) and has another 3 years on his contract. Unless he desperately dreams of playing in China, he aint going anywhere... No matter how much people will it to happen.

I don't think Wazza needs the money SLM.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Neither does Floyd but he still wants to earn £100m per fight.

...............

He doesn't have to move his family to a foreign country, that he doesn't speak the language of for three or four years to earn it, though.

The temptation for him would be that he could go to China, stay there for 3 years, earn £100m

Then go to states and play another couple of years and live there with his family if he wants

Transfer window has closed in China.

All of the squads have their full quota of overseas players.

If he was to go there in the summer window , likely some team would have to buy out the contract of an overseas player to accomodate.

If it's purely down to money, China is a no brainer though. He'd never get anywhere near that amount elsewhere.

only thing that may swing it is if the manager, whoever that is, tells him he will be warming the bench for most of the season, so that china/MLS becomes a playing time issue, not just a cash issue.

but i agree that it is a vain hope.

Or he could stay put and earn £36m at a big club, in the area of the country that he loves, while his wife stays relevant in the rags and chat shows she seems to enjoy and his KKKids can grow up eating chips and gravy, as planned.

Are his children white supremacist racists?

that is the only possibility, yea.

Even then, I think a few bigger Euro clubs would take a punt on him. Probably a fair few PL clubs too, and with the league awash with cash, he wouldn't have to take that much of a pay drop.

I don't even think he would even consider it.

I base that on nothing what so ever, mind, just knowing Wazza's character a bit from listening to him.

I could be well wrong.

Isn't he already on a £70m contract with us already?

I honestly don't think Rooney will go there. He would miss good old fashioned British food like fish and chips, pizza and Chinese far too much.

The most ridiculous thing is the thought of Rooney learning Chinese.







Numer two, and number thirty please.

There is more to life than football.

I think the phrase you are searching for is "There is more to life than money".

You never know, Rooney.... being captain of UTD and England, might still think he is a pretty decent player? When he hit form, before his injury, you could see why managers stand by him.

China is a beautiful country


the bits thousands of miles away from the overpopulated, horribly polluted major cities are yes

He is only getting older and should not be anywhere near England's XI for 2018 world cup. Neither should he be a key player for Utd, esp if Utd want to be at the top of the game
--------------------------
The small but subtle difference is that you think he is washed up, but he probably doesn't.



-------------------------
We live in a world where money can buy you nearly everything - he should cash in.
---------------------------
I imagine that the £1m a month he gets off UTD is enough?

Nah, if I was Wayne I'd stay in Manchester, where you can get proper Chinese food.
