Manchester United forward Wayne Rooney says that he would like to be the club's new captain.

Wayne Rooney has admitted that he wants to be the captain of Manchester United.

The 29-year-old is seen as one of the favourites to take over the armband following the departure of Nemanja Vidic.

"Of course I would like the captaincy but it's the manager's decision who he chooses," The Guardian quotes Rooney as saying.

"He wants to work with the players and then choose a captain from there. I don't think he was ever going to just walk in and choose a player from the off. I'm sure he will look at the players now and make his decision in a couple of weeks."

Rooney has scored 216 goals for United in his 10 years at the club.
