Manchester United captain Wayne Rooney is struggling to find himself a new club.

The Mirror says Rooney faces being stuck on the bench at Old Trafford next season with Manchester United unwilling to fund a cut-price exit.

Rooney is struggling to find another club and has not received an offer which comes remotely near his current United salary of up to £300,000-a-week.

He has one year plus the option of a second left on his United deal and the club are not prepared to rip up his contract and let him leave for nothing.

United are also reluctant to fund a huge chunk of Rooney's salary to help him find a move.
