£40M JACKPOT FOR ROO
-
WAYNE ROONEY is poised to sign a £40million long-term deal with Manchester United by the turn of the year.
Sunday Mirror Sport can reveal that talks between Rooney's advisers and Old Trafford officials are under way.
The England star's wish "to sign for United for the rest of my career" is about to come true.
Despite the player's disappointing start to the season manager Sir Alex Ferguson has supported Rooney unequivocally and believes he will come good.
He singled out Rooney for special praise yesterday after the young striker's best performance of the season in United's 3-1 victory at Wigan. Rooney still has almost four years remaining on the £50,000- a-week deal he signed when he joined United in a £20m transfer from Everton two years ago.
But United want to secure a longterm commitment that ensures Rooney (right), who is 21 this month, stays at Old Trafford for at least six years.
However, Ferguson believes Rooney is now paying a price for his determination in going to the World Cup finals. Rooney beat all the odds to overcome a broken metatarsal and link up with the England squad in Germany.
Ferguson said: "I don't think it did him any good going to Germany in the physical condition he was in.
"Wayne's performances have not been that bad, they have just not been the worldclass standards people expect. We just can't wait for him to get a goal that his performances deserve." -
United better control it's budget well or it'll end up like Leeds.
But signing Rooney on long-term contract is definitely a smart and good move.
Cheers.

He deserve the increment to be fair... He and ronaldo are the future of united. Anyway, the amount is spread across 6 years.
Ruud was earning 90,000 a week, Keane 100,000... He deserve something around there i guess...... its not a transfer fee so no need to pay out all at a go
Its a good long-term deal, for him and united.
