ARSENE WENGER has hinted he could make a sensational summer swoop for Wayne Rooney.
.
The Manchester United striker is unsettled at Old Trafford and handed in a transfer request last month.
.
Rooney, 27, will thrash out his future with new Red Devils boss David Moyes in the coming weeks.
.
But Wenger is ready to pounce and could battle Chelsea, Paris Saint-Germain and Bayern Munich for the England forward should he be put up for sale.
.
The Arsenal manager, who has been handed a £100million warchest, admitted: "Rooney could be an interesting player for everybody in the world, who would turn him down?
.
"David Moyes' first challenge is to go in to Manchester and bridge the gap between him and Rooney.
.
"If that is feasible or not depends on his personality. we will see. It will be interesting to see how that will be handled."
.
Wenger is also keen on bringing former captain Cesc Fabregas back to the Emirates. And he reckons the Spaniard is unsettled at Barcelona and could move on this transfer window.
.
Wenger added: "I think at the moment he's lacking the confidence of being a regular player. Recently he has not been that.
.
"Cesc is such a passionate player, a player of such quality, that it must hurt him not to play in every single game.
Arsene Wenger should just forget about this idea. Wayne Rooney doesn't look like he would be living United very soon.
l will be glad to see Rooney in Gunners colour. However, l doubt if the deal will be successful. :D
