you know, Rooney has a pretty sweet deal at United too ... probably 300k/week or even more (who knows, really), captain, seemingly the only player on the team who's really untouchable. I doubt he uproots his kids (the youngest was only born a couple months ago) to go to China of all places. Plus I don't think Rooney is one of those players who'd ever accept that he's declined and that football exile should be a viable option.
My guess is he'll stay at United for a couple more years and then have his swan song at Everton.
