Erstwhile Tottenham manager Harry Redknapp has advised embattled Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger to sign Chinese Super League bound Wayne Rooney.
Redknapp is of the opinion that the 31-year-old England international is the perfect player that can play a good leadership role for the Arsenal squad at the
Emirates stadium.
Rooney has been heavily linked with a move to China which would make him the highest paid footballer should he decide to leave Old trafford, and Redknapp explained that it would be a great 'mistake' for the former Everton man to dump the Red Devils for China.
“Arsenal should take a gamble and sign Wayne Rooney on a two-year contract.
“There’s no love lost between Jose Mourinho and Arsene Wenger, but Petr Cech moved between the two managers and Wayne deserves the chance to choose his next move.
"It is pretty clear his time at Manchester United is coming to an end.
"Jose is saying all the right things publicly but his team selections make it obvious he doesn’t fancy him and that’s his choice as manager.
"He’s obviously a big player at the club but if you aren’t in the team, you are one step removed from all that and he won’t stand for it.
"Wayne always wants to play and that’s what made him great. He was a street footballer with the same hunger and desire as a kid in the playground.
