Latest Transfer Betting Round-Up Part 1

Even though there is still some football to be played at the Confederations Cup, the silly season of transfer stories is definitely in full swing as well. One of the most interesting factors that has defined this season, particularly in the UK but abroad as well in a few cases, is the fact that a number of top clubs have had changing of the guards with newer fresher faces (for the most part, Jose) brought into the frame.

Not the least of which is Manchester United, which has just seen Sir Alex Ferguson vacate his post for the first time since the early 1980s. With his hand-picked selection David Moyes set to spearhead United’s further quest for glory, you can bank on the Wayne Rooney saga playing out for quite some time. 

Having gone to court and entered arbitration to settle libel claims made in an autobiography, there is said to be little love lost between Rooney and Moyes - the manager who brought Wayne Rooney to prominence as a 16 year old Arsenal-killing sensation at Everton. 

With Rooney supposedly looking for a new challenge and, appearing to be unsettled by the arrival of David Moyes, he has handed in a transfer request which United promptly turned down. 

It doesn’t look to be a ploy to get a new contract, it genuinely appears that Rooney has gotten jaded enough that he doesn’t see himself at United going forward - a club he could easily grow into as a legend. Already a major factor in all of their marketing campaigns, Wazza knows that he is loved on the red side of Manchester and the recent speculation linking him with Arsenal has got to be unsettling at best for the red army faithful.
