Manchester United are reportedly keen to sell unsettled striker Wayne Rooney this summer, but not to a Premier League rival.

Manchester United are reportedly keen to sell unsettled striker Wayne Rooney this summer.

The wantaway 27-year-old has been the subject of unsuccessful bids from Chelsea and Arsenal in recent weeks.

United want to get rid of Rooney, according to The Mirror, but the paper also claims that the Old Trafford club are unwilling to sell the England star to a domestic rival.

Paris Saint-Germain and Real Madrid are reported to be "slightly interested" in Rooney.

Despite United's preference for Rooney to move abroad, the UK bookmakers still believe that the player is likely to remain on British soil.

Betfred have made Chelsea 1/2 favourites to sign Rooney before the end of the summer transfer window.

Rooney is 9/1 to join Arsenal, 12/1 to move to PSG and 25/1 to arrive at Real Madrid.

Meanwhile, he is 6/4 to stay at Old Trafford, where he has two years remaining on his contract.
