Wayne Rooney has admitted he's considering a move stateside after he's finished at Manchester United.
Rooney, 29, still has a few years left on his United contract, but he's already thinking about what comes next in his career.
“When that time comes, that’ll be something I’d think about. (I’ll) sit down with my wife and children and decide if it would be right for me,” Rooney told the Seattle Times.
The status of David De Gea’s future at United is still up in the air, and Louis van Gaal is in a difficult posisiotn because of it. Previously, former Barcelona keeper Victor Valdes, who has played second fiddle to De Gea, was expected to take over should his compatriot leave for Spain. However, Valdes and van Gaal have butted heads and the keeper's place on the team seems to be all but gone.

Wigan defender James Tavernier was about to take a corner when a young fan ran onto the field and stole Tavernier's thunder.
Tavernier's reaction is pretty hilarious.
If Raheem Sterling’s on-field success in a Manchester City kit still remains to be seen, then his aptitude in interviews seems to be coming along nicely.
Having recently completed a £49 million move from Liverpool, one that was surrounded with controversy in the media and nastiness from fans, Sterling has come out and declared Sergio Aguero on par with Luis Suarez.
Franz Beckenbauer, a legendary player and Bayern Munich's honorary president, has said that now-departed midfielder Bastian Schweinsteiger would be better off if he had transferred to Major League Soccer instead of Manchester United.
Schweinsteiger, who is set to become the first German to appear for Manchester United, will have to prove himself all over again in the premier league, Beckenbauer said.
Brace yourselves. This story is not for the squeamish.
There was a shark attack at an English soccer game between Barnet and Grimsby town. We are not making this up.
Apparently, a Grimsby town supporter named Kenneth Meech assaulted a steward at Barnet's home grounds with an inflatable shark, like the things that small children ride around on in swimming pools.
As Chile continue to celebrate their home Copa America win, the tide begins to shift from national to club football. In a penalty shootout win over Lionel Messi and Argentina, some Chilean players have been granted a rest period by their parent clubs.
