Moyes denies Rooney has signed new Man Utd deal

Manchester United boss David Moyes denied claims that Wayne Rooney has signed a new contract to remain at Old Trafford. "As soon as we have the information to give you, we will give you it," Moyes said when asked about contract negotiations with the England striker.

The Scot does hope a deal for the player will be concluded soon, though, adding, "Everyone knows how important a player he is. He is a terrific football player and if we can get it done that will be great."

It is understood that Rooney agreed the outline of a five-and-a-half year contract worth £300,000 earlier this week.
