Rooney denies handing Transfer request

Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney fears he is being forced out of Manchester United and into exile at French outfit Paris Saint-Germain.

Rooney has denied handing an official transfer request, despite manager Alex Ferguson publicly insisting that he had asked to leave The Red Devils.

Rooney fears that the United faithful may struggle to forgive him and it now seems almost certain that the 27-year-old will leave this summer.

Monaco, Chelsea , Arsenal , PSG and Manchester City are the host of clubs that are interested in signing Rooney and are keeping a close watch on the striker.

It is reported that Ferguson had even explored using Rooney as bait in an incredible player-plus-cash swap deal to bring Manchester City keeper Joe Hart to Old Trafford.

Ferguson is a big admirer of Hart and felt his unhappiness under Roberto Mancini gave him a chance of snatching him.

While he admits to having clear the air talks with Ferguson, as he sought assurances about his future, Rooney remains adamant that no formal transfer request was put in.
