Rooney Dikabarkan ke Washington, Merapat ke DC United?

Washington - Wayne Rooney disebut bakal bertolak ke Washington, Amerika Serikat, pekan ini. Penyerang Everton itu dikabarkan siap bernegosiasi soal transfernya ke DC United.

Berdasarkan kabar di situs resmi Major League Soccer yang mengutip Washington Post, Rooney disebut akan datang ke Washington pada Kamis (24/5) dan Jumat (25/5). Eks penyerang Manchester United itu dilaporkan akan melakukan proses negosiasi dengan DC United.

Selama dua hari tersebut, penyerang 32 tahun itu diklaim akan langsung menjalani tes medis, bertemu dengan petinggi DC United, serta melongok Audi Field, calon stadion baru DC United.

"Ini adalah langkah selanjutnya dalam proses. Bukan berarti sudah ada kesepakatan, tetapi itu menuju ke arah yang tepat," ucap sumber yang tidak disebutkan namanya itu.

Laporan Washington Post juga menyatakan DC United siap membayar Rooney setidaknya 5 juta dollar (Rp 70,9 miliar) per musim. Meski begitu, DC United juga harus bernegosiasi soal harga dengan Everton selaku klub pemilik Rooney.

Everton sendiri belum merespons kabar ini. Namun Direktur Olahraga baru Everton, Marcel Brands, memberi indikasi bahwa segala aktivitas transfer akan melibatkan manajer baru. Saat ini, kursi manajer Everton tengah lowong menyusul kepergian Sam Allardyce.

"Jika kami akan mengambil keputusan tentang pemain, penting bagi manajer untuk terlibat karena dia akan bekerja dengan mereka setiap hari," kata Brands seperti dikabarkan Guardian.

"Saya akan mengurus strategi jangka panjang, tetapi pekerjaan pertama sekarang adalah mencari seorang manajer sesegera mungkin dan langsung pergi bekerja bersama skuat."

Marco Silva Beri Kesempatan Rooney untuk Bertahan di Everton

Liverpool - Wayne Rooney belakangan dikabarkan akan meninggalkan Everton untuk ke Liga Amerika Serikat. Tapi pergantian manajer di Everton memberinya kans untuk bertahan.

Rooney sebelumnya dilaporkan sudah mengadakan pembicaraan dengan tim MLS, DC United, tentang kemungkinan transfer. Meski baru semusim kembali ke Everton, penyerang 32 tahun ini memang dispekulasikan masa depannya.

Eks pemain Manchester United tersebut sebelumnya tak cocok dengan cara bermain Sam Allardyce, yang memang sempat menangani Everton sampai kemudian meninggalkan klub di akhir musim ini. Kosongnya kursi manajer ini pula yang membuat masa depan Rooney tak kunjung jelas.

Manajemen klub memutuskan menunggu manajer anyar untuk bergerak di bursa transfer. Mereka pada prosesnya menunjuk Marco Silva sebagai arsitek tim yang baru.

Silva pun langsung berbicara soal kemungkinan mempertahankan Rooney. Dia menyatakan membuka pintu untuk Rooney kembali ke tim jika memang ingin.

"Ini adalah sesuatu yang sudah dimulai ketika saya tiba. Kami akan berbicara dengannya. Kami perlu memahami segala sesuatunya," kata Silva dilansir FourFourTwo.

"Pintu kembali terbuka kapan saja untuknya. Kami akan berbicara dan melihat apa yang sedang terjadi. Semuanya keputusan Wayne pada akhirnya," tambahnya.

Rooney dikontrak permanen selama 3,5 tahun oleh DC United. Kalau melihat segi usia, kemungkinan sih setelah kontraknya berakhir bakal pensiun dan gantung sepatu..

WHAT DOES MOURINHO THINK OF ROONEY’S MLS MOVE?

Jose Mourinho feels former Manchester United captain Wayne Rooney’s move to America would generate further welcome interest in Major League Soccer (MLS).

Rooney is the Reds’ all-time leading scorer with 253 goals, surpassing Sir Bobby Charlton’s record last year, and left United last summer to re-join his boyhood club Everton after 13 successful trophy-laden years at Old Trafford, in which he won 16 major honours.

The 32-year-old, who was Everton’s top scorer in 2017/18 with 11 goals, has joined MLS side DC United.

When asked by reporters recently for his thoughts on Rooney’s next career move, the boss stated that the arrival of a high-profile figure such as the former England forward would be a massive boost for the game Stateside.

“When he made it at Everton, his boyhood club, the world was surprised with that kid and then he went to Manchester United and he had the incredible career he had,” said Jose.

“Then in the Premier League again at Everton Football Club, so I think his career in England was perfect.

“He decides the MLS [is next] and in MLS, you have always some iconic players that are going to end their career there. You had [Steven] Gerrard, you had [Frank] Lampard, you had [Patrick] Vieira, you had so many of them. David Beckham played there too.

“You now have Zlatan [Ibrahimovic], you now have Wayne. I just hope he enjoys it and, of course, he’ll bring the attention that the MLS needs to attract more people, to steal some people from the other sports that normally the American people are in love with.”
