Manchester United star Wayne Rooney insists he would only ever quit the club if he was no longer wanted at Old Trafford. The England striker watched as Cristiano Ronaldo walked away from the Premier League champions to move to Real Madrid in a world-record deal this summer. However, Rooney, who joined United from Everton in 2004, has no intention of following the lead of his former team-mate. The 23-year-old is adamant he does not see a reason to leave and that he would have to be forced out of the Red Devils by boss Sir Alex Ferguson. Rooney said in The Sun: "I've always said I love this club and, as long as I'm wanted here, I'll play here. "It's as simple as that. I can't see one reason why I should want to move. "I've everything I want. My family are just 30 minutes away, I'm settled and I honestly can't see me going anywhere else unless I'm told otherwise by the manager."
