Enjoy reading.

David Moyes is minded to keep Wayne Rooney at Manchester United and the new manager is hopeful he can convince the striker that his long-term future remains at the club.

Moyes, who spent his first day of work as United's manager visiting the club's Carrington training ground, will make resolving Rooney's future one of his priorities. He was welcomed on Monday by the news that Rio Ferdinand will sign a new one-year contract no later than Friday.

Most importantly, there is a desire on the part of Moyes to keep Rooney at United. Rooney has two years remaining on his deal – the usual point for renewing terms – and, if he decides to stay, his salary of about £300,000 a week means any negotiations regarding a fresh contract could be lengthy.

Moyes will definitely have Ferdinand after the defender agreed a deal worth at least £100,000 a week. Ferdinand is out of the country with friends including Jody Morris, the former Chelsea midfielder, for a stag party but the fresh contract will be announced in the coming days.
