Rooney expects rejuvenated Man Utd to challenge for title

“Since I am in this sport I always thought the record can not go higher and I was always wrong”.

Pogba is now on holiday in Las Vegas, where a Sky Sports reporter asked him whether he was in line for a move to United.

It’s been widely reported that a deal for the rangy midfielder to head back to Man United, who he left for just £800,000 in 2012, is effectively done, with Sky Sports claiming that he’s due in England imminently to seal the transfer.

Asked about Paul Pogba’s seemingly impending £100m move to Manchester United, Wenger said: ‘It is completely insane if you can not afford to pay it.

Rooney went on to suggest United’s moves to recruit Jose Mourinho as manager and striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic this summer has changed the mood around the club, as he hopes the good times are ready to roll once again.

“He had great ability, some of the things he could do, and he’s gone up a level since he left us”.

“We can definitely all learn from him while he is here, so we all need to take that chance”, Rashford said. “Barcelona did it. You can win championships, you can win titles, but there is a manner in which you want it”. “I’m sure he’ll feel there is unfinished business”, Rooney said.

Rooney believes adding players of Ibrahimovic’s quality to Jose Mourinho’s already impressive squad is bringing the United of old back to life. “We’re in a very good spot now, we think we can challenge for the Premier League”. “I think he’s a great manager, he’s very hungry and his victories and successes speak volumes for him”.

“Does it make sense because the player can deliver a return on that investment?”

Manchester United might not have Champions League football to look forward to this season, but they remain a huge draw for prospective players.

“I know it’s a one-off game, but we want to show we can win a trophy early on. we feel that’s an important event for us”.
