Chinese Super League club confirms approach for Rooney and bid for Aubameyang

Tianjin Quanjian boss Fabio Cannavaro has revealed he had a "chat" with the Man Utd striker over a move but would seemingly prefer the Dortmund star

Tianjin Quanjian manager Fabio Cannavaro has confirmed that he held talks over a move for Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney, while he is also keen on Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Fiorentina star Nikola Kalinic.

Tabloid reports on Wednesday have suggested England captain Rooney is now keen to leave Old Trafford after over 12 years at the club.

The United striker, who has struggled for regular first-team minutes this season despite breaking the club's goalscoring record in January, has apparently been offered £35 million per year to move to China.
