Wayne Rooney Rooney submitted a transfer request in August 2004, despite Everton having made a new contract offer valued at £50,000 per week.[55] Everton then rejected a bid of £20 million from Newcastle,[56] and ultimately signed for Manchester United at the end of the month after a £25.6 million deal was reached.[57] It was the highest fee ever paid for a player under 20 years old; Rooney was still only 18 when he left Everton.[58] Sir Alex Ferguson, then manager of United, said that "There were plenty of eyebrows raised" when he persuaded the club's board of directors to sanction "a multi-million pound" move to try to sign Rooney from Everton.[59]
