United must keep Rooney, warns McGrath

Ireland legend Paul McGrath has warned David Moyes that Wayne Rooney will come back to “haunt” Manchester United if he is allowed join Chelsea and questioned the wisdom of the club’s pursuit of Marouane Fellaini and Cesc Fabregas.

Chelsea have already had two bids for Rooney rejected and manager Jose Mourinho, while refusing to refer to the striker by name, hinted on Sunday that the Blues will make another bid for the 27-year-old before the close of the transfer window.

McGrath, though, hopes Rooney will stay.
