Manchester United want Rooney to PSG sale and his side have spoken to club over wages, according to Le10

Le10 have been covering the possibility of Wayne Rooney going to PSG for months and it's something they simply won't leave alone. He's on their front cover again today (image, top right) and the magazine claims that if the club fails with a Ronaldo bid, as would appear likely, that Wayne Rooney is the man they are going to go for. It's nothing new, Ronaldo has always been first choice with the club almost keeping Rooney as some kind of back-up option, if Le10 are to be believed.
The magazine have been singing a similar tune since they claimed in March it was Manchester United trying to sell Rooney to PSG and not the French club pushing for the move. We said at the time:
'Today Le10 have Wayne Rooney on their front page. A quick glance at it (image above, bottom right) would be enough to scare any Manchester United fans who would be loathe to see him leave the club. And inside it gets more worrying. They totally respect The Times, calling them a 'very serious' newspaper, but say that there's no interest from PSG like detailed in the original article.
This has led them to do some digging on their side and it would appear that PSG aren't happy with being painted as the interested party and have done some leaking of their own.
Le10 claim that if Wayne Rooney is the subject of a deal going on behind the scenes, then it will be Manchester United forcing the issue and not Paris Saint Germain, that the Ligue 1 side haven't gone looking for Rooney, and if they end up in talks about him, it will be because his transfer has been suggested to them.
They go as far as to say that according to information they've gained from the French club, Manchester United offered Wayne Rooney to PSG in August. If that's true it's huge news, and would surely underline that Rooney's Old Trafford days are numbered.'
It was their response to reports in England (mainly from The Times) that PSG were chasing Rooney and they repeat the same claim today and say that the possibility of a move is well advanced with the club's Qatari owners. They also claim that the 'entourage' of Wayne Rooney has been in contact with PSG and know that the player would be offered a very large salary by the French football club.
Manchester United are stated as being a club willing to sell the player and it's something Le10 say they want to do quickly. Everything is in place for that to happen as soon as PSG give up hope on Ronaldo. The Portuguese international has been linked with a return to Old Trafford but Real Madrid are desperate to keep him and his future is being played out in the Spanish press, something which will no doubt irritate the player. If he wanted to escape that kind of politics in football then PSG probably wouldn't be the best option, given the repeated stories surrounding players at the club and those they are targeting.
Le10 have been insistent on parts of this story for months, even before the recent Rooney 'asking to leave' saga. They insist it's Manchester United pushing the player toward PSG and not the French club trying to do a deal against the wishes of the current Premier League champions. If there is truth in it then it would suggest Manchester United have been looking to offload Wayne Rooney for some time, whilst they can still get a good price which would also explain contacting PSG.
A move outside of the UK may be more attractive to Rooney, and PSG would certainly be willing and able to offer more money than Arsenal, for example. However, Wayne Rooney probably wouldn't be too pleased about having to wait around to see if the club got their first choice in before falling back on the option of signing him.
