Real Madrid to kickoff Man Utd talks with €70M Rooney bid
Real Madrid have launched a bid to prise Wayne Rooney away from Manchester United.
AS says the United star is the No1 summer target for Real president Florentino Perez and negotiations will begin at €70 million.
While accepting a deal is remote, Florentino and Real GM Jorge Valdano are counting on Rooney's new contract talks to give them an opening.
The England ace's current deal expires in 2012 and his minders are keen to open negotiations about an improved agreement to 2017 before the World Cup.

ADD ANOTHER ZERO AND GIVE US RONALDO BACK.. THEN IT'S A DEAL, MATE !!
Lets not forget Real Madrid can't go bust, Real (Royal) is exactly what it states on the tin, they are backed by the spanish royal family hence banks lending them extreme amounts of cash. if this club was run like any other, without royal backing, they would not be here today, or if they was they wouldn't have the players of stadium due to not be able to afford it. the will probably get Rooney from our beloved united but only becuase are YANK owners need the money!!!! REAL MADRID are a club built by money not by talent, there stadium is no theatre of dreams.....
real madrid is the worse football team in the world.......they just like a circus place for the people.........they think that the can do anything with all of the money..................it's a thousand pities
