Wayne Rooney says all of his Derby County players want to stick around for next season, despite the club's relegation from the Championship and ongoing uncertainty off-the-field.
The Rams' brave fight against the drop was officially ended on Easter Monday, with their defeat at QPR combined with a Reading draw against Swansea.
The club have endured a wretched season of administration, points deductions and transfer embargoes whilst American businessman Chris Kirchner is currently in the process of trying to get a takeover sorted. Rooney knows that deal is crucial to not only the club's future but the chances of keeping the current crop of players together.
