Wayne Rooney's stalling over committing himself to Manchester United for the new season has nothing to do over his relationship with David Moyes.

Rooney has had long-standing issues with United and remains disenchanted at allegedly erroneous reports, fuelled by former manager Sir Alex Ferguson, that he made a formal transfer request.

The Mail on Sunday says Rooney and Moyes have been in regular contact and there have already been discussions on a personal level since Moyes returned to his desk last week.

"The two get on fine," said a source. "Wayne has trained with a lot of purpose and enthusiasm. He is clearly eager to get himself back in match condition."
