West Ham weigh up move for Wayne Rooney as club join Everton in race to sign unsettled Manchester United star

West Ham will consider a move for Wayne Rooney in the summer if he decides to leave Manchester United.

The England striker has been largely sidelined by Jose Mourinho since he took over as United manager in the summer.

His career is on the wane, no longer the full-time captain of the national team and with only five goals to his name this season.
