It's over for Wayne Rooney's career in Manchester. The coach, Ferguson already confirmed today in a morning press conference, that the England striker wants to leave.
Rooney's contract will be over in the summer of 2012, and he has called off the contract negotiation in August.
"We have had a discussion about the whole situation. The player says he is adamant he wants to leave," Ferguson said.
Fergie refused the accusation of him being the one who pushed Roo with the decision. The media reported that they had a small dispute that put Roo on a bench for a few match. Injury was Fergie's reason for not playing Rooney, however, the bomber said otherwise, that he was fit 100%.
"We've not had any argument," Ferguson told United's television channel, MUTV. "You have to understand the mechanics of these situations when someone wants to leave the club.
Fergie explained that he was shocked with the decision, since only a few months ago, Rooney said that he wanted to stay at MU for life.
"We just don’t know what’s changed the boy’s mind. David(United's chief Exec.)was shocked, I was shocked,"said Fergie.
"I had a meeting with the boy and he reiterated what his agent had said. He wanted to go. I said to him, 'Just remember one thing: respect this club. I don’t want any nonsense from you, respect your club'", he added.
Just hours before the press conference, Rooney was suffered with a minor injury during training session. He will miss tomorrow Champions League match against Bursaspor.
