Wayne Rooney Urges Arsenal To Hijack Man United Transfer Move For 27-year-old Epl Striker
Manchester United legend Wayne Rooney has urged Arsenal to hijack the Red Devils transfer target, Crystal Palace star Jean-Philippe Mateta, this summer.
The 27-year-old Mateta has exceeded expectations this season and has now emerged as a subject of interest for Manchester United.
The Frenchman helped the Eagles finish 10th in the Premier League last season and has been a key factor in their recent run of form.
Rooney, who watched Arsenal draw 1-1 with Manchester United in the Premier League on Sunday, believes the Gunners need a frontman.
He asserted that the north London outfit should launch a move for Mateta. He told BBC Sport, Jean-Philippe Mateta is a big, strong lad who scores a lot of goals.
