Wayne Rooney has opened up on the situation that led to his 2010 Manchester United transfer request and the strains in his relationship with Red Devils boss Sir Alex Ferguson.
While Rooney would not see his Old Trafford career end until 2017 when he was the club’s record goalscorer, he asked to leave the club in October 2010 after questioning the ambition of the club amid fears they were set to enter a transitional period.
