DONE DEAL? Everton striker Wayne Rooney agrees DC United move

Everton striker Wayne Rooney has agreed to join DC United.

Rooney has agreed a deal in principle that could see him leave Everton for Major League Soccer side DC United this summer in a £12.5m deal.

Rooney's representatives have been in the US to negotiate terms and the former England skipper is willing to leave the Premier League club.

Nothing has been signed yet and uncertainty over Everton boss Sam Allardyce's position means the forward, 32, could stay at Goodison Park.

Rooney re-joined Everton in July 2017.
