Jose Mourihno admits he is a fan of
Wayne Rooney.
Chelsea arrived
in Bangkok ahead of their pre-season matches there — just as Manchester United
star Rooney was heading home.
England striker Rooney
suffered a hamstring injury which could rule him out of the start of the new
season.
He has been linked with
a move to Stamford Bridge this summer after Alex Ferguson claimed the
Liverpudlian wanted to leave United.
And asked about the
possibility of a swoop, Chelsea boss Mourinho said: “It’s a tricky question
because I cannot speak about it.
"But you know me
and it’s not my kind of character to speak with a bit of hypocrisy and I always
say what I think.
“He is a player I like
very much but I can say no more than that. Being fast and direct, I like that,
but he’s a Manchester United player.”
Rooney, 27, has also
been linked with Arsenal, Real Madrid, Barcelona and PSG.
But new United boss
David Moyes has insisted his front man is not for sale.
