Rooney to pay Moyes as it turns out there was never a breach of trust
June 3, 2008
Wayne Rooney today agreed to pay a substantional amount of money to his former manager David Moyes.
Moyes was Rooney’s manager at Everton before his big money switch to Manchester United and in his book of 2006, the striker accused Moyes of “a serious breach of trust towards a young player under his management”. This all followed leaked transcripts of what Rooney believed to be private discussions.
Edward Parladorio, Moyes’ Solicitor, has always claimed the accusation was false and in a statement relseased today, Moyes said “I am glad that these issues have now been resolved and that my name has been fully cleared in this matter”.
The actual amount is undisclosed and it must be paid by Rooney, Harper Collins (book publisher) and Hunter Davis (co-author).
