Rooney wants more than Mata to pen new Man Utd deal

Wayne Rooney won't sign a new deal with Manchester United until he's been convinced by their summer market plans.

The Sun says Rooney is NOT prepared to sign a new deal at struggling Manchester United - even if Juan Mata joins the club.

The England striker is understood to be waiting until at least the summer to see who else David Moyes brings in before making a decision about his future.

It is becoming increasingly likely that the former Everton hitman will see out his contract and become a free agent at the end of next season.

United are believed to need to bid around £39million to land Mata, who has been frozen out of the first-team at Chelsea.
