Bilbo Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 Reports of £80k a week didn't sit right with me and I got bored on my commute to London so did some research... When he moved to Everton from United he was on £300,000 a week with 2 years left on his contract. United paid £192,000 of this, with Everton picking up the remaining £102,000. When he moved to DC United, he had a year on his United (and Everton) contract and DC United picked up £42,000 from Everton, meaning last year he was being paid - £192,000 - Manchester United £66,000 - Everton £42,000 - DC United His United and Everton contracts expired in June so now he's "only" getting his DC United wage, hence why he's able/willing to come back. And to think Ikechi Anya is on £34k a week This commute is long and I love Wayne Rooney. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. P Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 You need to ask Forest fans Leeds fans & Steve Gibson. They know more about Derby financial state than anyone else associated with Derby County! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King Kevin Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 Footballers and every working person reaches a stage in their life for the ability to earn the maximum income .He has passed his max and is on the downward slope as a player only. Like many other players he his now looking to move into other areas to try and satisfy is income needs and ambitions this happens in all professions and working environments .Only time will tell if he succeeds.

I was just responding to the several reports that his £80k a week wages at DC have been matched by Derby County, I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bcnram Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 I don’t get the fascination with trying to find out what others earn. Does it really matter. Ps. You are way over the top with Anya’s, he is on nothing like that. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Ram for All Seasons Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 £100000 a week according to the Grauniad How will Derby and Phillip Cocu manage the world of Wayne Rooney? https://www.theguardian.com/football/2019/aug/07/Derby-phillip-cocu-manage-world-wayne-rooney?CMP=Share_AndroidApp_In_die_Zwischenablage_kopieren Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carnero Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 Rooney has moved back to this country for family reasons and his people were the ones to contact us over a potential deal. Not exactly a scenario where we'd have to pay him more than he was currently on at DC United. I honestly couldn't give a poo though as the deal will more than pay for itself. I'll judge him on his football ability alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadioactiveWaste Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 The way this all ties in with the 32 Red sponsorship makes me think even if the sticker price on his wages is astronomical for the division, we're not going to be to badly out on it. I strikes me as a case of the Roony/32Red camp wanted to make this deal happen with a club in England and knew no championship clubs would just stump up based on his wages vs his contribution - so if not us, they'd have made it happen with someone else, I guess we made a convincing pitch on the coaching side, the manager and state the team is in (looking upwards). Let's just assume any club being sponsored by 32Red could've ended up with this but Mel made it happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FindernRam Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 I don't really care if he doesn't bankrupt the club OR he doesn't cause dressing room unrest such that anytime anyone has a good game they are in the office looking for parity (assuming he's on more than them).

Rayvon Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 Betting market has opened up in America since May 14th last year https://gamblingcompliance.com/resource/us-sports-betting-market-be-world’s-biggest-2023-new-report-finds No surprise that a lot of online companies will be trying to break into the market. Sure Rooney could play a big part in it for 32Red. Seems to make sense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They accuse Rooney of 'selling his soul' to wear the 32 shirt in a claim that is the equivalent of Reggie Kray accusing Simon Cowell of being somewhat irritable.
