Dwight Yorke: 'Wayne Rooney situation good test for David Moyes'

Former Manchester United striker Dwight Yorke feels that the Wayne Rooney transfer saga will be test of David Moyes's skill as the new boss of the Red Devils.

Former Manchester United striker Dwight Yorke feels that the transfer saga involving Wayne Rooney is the perfect test of David Moyes's managerial skills.

The England international handed in a transfer request at the end of last season, according to former boss Sir Alex Ferguson, and has been linked with several clubs this summer.

Yorke told The Mirror: "Welcome to Man United; that is what it is all about. If he does not need that pressure and speculation and dealing with big egos, he should not be at the club.

"Wayne is a Manchester United player. There is always a speculation with Wazza and that is how it is when you are a big personality like him.

"Man United is about retaining the best players and Wazza is one of those. It would be a huge disappointment if he decided to leave."

Moyes replaced Sir Alex Ferguson as the end of last season after the Scot retired after 26 years in charge at Old Trafford.
