Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney is set to be handed a bumper pay-rise.
The Daily Mail says United are ready to open talks on a five-year deal, complete with a £30,000-a-week pay rise. The deal will take Rooney's earnings to £130,000-a-week.
United vowed to quash interest in Rooney from Real Madrid by discussing new terms with him after the World Cup, and chief executive David Gill hopes to reach an agreement with his agent Paul Stretford before the season starts.
