Manchester United transfer news: Wayne Rooney urges former club to buy young players and resist big-name signings
Wayne Rooney believes Manchester United will benefit more from signing young players who are hungry to impress as oppose to bringing in established big-name stars.Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is planning on rebuilding his squad over the summer with the club close to completing the signing of Daniel James from Swansea and linked with Crystal Palace defender Aaron wan-Bissaka.Getty3

Rooney, now with DC United, wants Man United to resist big name buys

The 13-time Premier League champions, who recruited Solskjaer after sacking Jose Mourinho in December, finished sixth and failed to qualify for the Champions League.“For Ole, I think the first thing he’s got to do is try and build the squad,” Rooney told BBC Radio Five Live’s Sportsweek programme. “I don’t think bringing one or two players in for over 100million is going to really help with the squad and the players who are there.“I think he needs to try and look at maybe five or six players who have got potential to be top players but you’re not spending 120, 130million on these players.“I think you spend 30million, 40million and then try to improve them, which will also give you longevity out of the players and allow you to build a squad around the five or six new players that come in, plus a few of the players who are still there.Getty3

Daniel James is set to join Manchester United

“You could bring (Cristiano) Ronaldo, Sergio Ramos and (Lionel) Messi in, or Gareth Bale for instance, and it’s going to cost you 300, 350million (for) which you’d get what? Maybe two years out of Ronaldo, a couple of years out of Ramos and then you’ve written that money off.”Simon Jordan discusses Daniel James' possible move to Manchester United United have not won the title since the final season of Sir Alex Ferguson’s reign in 2013.Rooney, who scored a record 253 goals for United and now plays in the MLS for DC United, believes the club’s fans will remain patient during a transitional phase under Solskjaer.“I just think the club needs to rebuild with younger players. But they need to be good enough and allow the manager to improve them,” he said.Getty3

Gareth Bale has been linked with a move to Old Trafford

“And I think the Man United fans will understand that they are probably not going to compete for the Premier League next year.“So let them have that time, let Ole have that time to build a team for the next two or three years who are going to compete, not only at Premier League level, but at Champions League level.”
