WAYNE ROONEY 'GREAT FOR MLS'
13/08/16
Portland Timbers owner Merritt Paulson says Wayne Rooney would be a "great signing" for the MLS.
As one of the biggest stars in English football for the past decade, Rooney would have plenty of interest should he decide to move away from Manchester and follow fellow countrymen such as Steven Gerrard and Frank Lampard to the United States.
"I would argue he still has some good soccer ahead of him," Paulson told the Daily Mirror. "I think he would be a great signing for MLS - 100 percent MLS would be attractive for him.
"Keeping in mind that is a very talented footballer, who has quality soccer ahead of him, you are not talking about a 34 or 35 year old."
