Erstwhile
Tottenham manager Harry Redknapp has advised embattled Arsenal manager
Arsene Wenger to sign Chinese Super League bound Wayne Rooney.
Redknapp
is of the opinion that the 31-year-old England international is the
perfect player that can play a good leadership role for the Arsenal
squad at the Emirates stadium.
Former Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp
Rooney
has been heavily linked with a move to China which would make him the
highest paid footballer should he decide to leave Old trafford, and
Redknapp explained that it would be a great 'mistake' for the former
Everton man to dump the Red Devils for China.
“Arsenal should take a gamble and sign Wayne Rooney on a two-year contract.
“There’s
no love lost between Jose Mourinho and Arsene Wenger, but Petr Cech
moved between the two managers and Wayne deserves the chance to choose
his next move.
"It is pretty clear his time at Manchester United is coming to an end.

"Jose
is saying all the right things publicly but his team selections make it
obvious he doesn’t fancy him and that’s his choice as manager.
"He’s obviously a big player
at the club but if you aren’t in the team, you are one step removed from
all that and he won’t stand for it.
"Wayne
always wants to play and that’s what made him great. He was a street
footballer with the same hunger and desire as a kid in the playground.
"It’ll be killing him to sit around as part of a squad, even if he has broken Sir Bobby Charlton’s goal-scoring record,'' Redknapp explained
