Manchester United are ready to waive a fee for Wayne Rooney as they look to smooth his departure from Old Trafford. Rooney’s agent Paul Stretford was pictured outside Everton chairman Bill Kenwright’s London offices on Wednesday afternoon as they thrashed out a contract with the 31-year-old, who is currently on £230,000 a week at Old Trafford.

Sportsmail reported on May 12 how United were using Everton’s interest in Rooney to help them in their bid to sign Romelu Lukaku.  Everton had been prepared to spend £10m on Rooney with £150,000 a week on wages. However, United’s willingness to let him go for free allows more leeway on wage negotiations which are likely to involve commercial revenue also. – Daily Mail.
