Roo ready to do the unthinkable and other red-hot gossip

(19-10-2010) Wayne Rooney will contemplate a move to Manchester City if Manchester United refuse to match his £200,000-a-week wage demands. According to a report in the Daily Telegraph on Tuesday, the England ace is keeping his options open after talks over a contract extension with the Red Devils stalled in recent weeks and is even prepared to do the unthinkable…move to their bitter cross-town rivals. Elsewhere, Real Madrid are ready to offer Manchester United Lassana Diarra, Karim Benzema and £20m in exchange for Rooney; Chelsea may make a new bid for Liverpool star Fernando Torres in January; Inter Milan are weighing up a £10m bid for Bolton defender Gary Cahill; and Liverpool winger Joe Cole admits that he is out of form and is suffering the worst spell of his career.
