Rooney now contends the addition of the English winger and a few more will help his former side have a good shot at finishing top of the table. Rooney told talkSPORT.

“United fans will be excited with Sancho coming in, I’m sure there will be one or two more who come in.
“I know the club very well, they’ll have expectations on themselves, expectations from the fans to be successful in a year which Ole [Gunnar Solskjaer] will be looking at and really having a good shot at winning the Premier League."
