With Juan Matas transfer secured, Manchester United appears to now be looking at another franchise-shaping deal. BBC Sport has reported that United has opened contract negotiations with Wayne Rooney in hopes of keeping him in red for the rest of his playing days. While concrete numbers of the possible Rooney extension were not disclosed in the BBC report, it called the offer one "that would make him the highest paid player in Uniteds history." UK paper The Telegraph has put the reported offer at £300,000 per week over a five year span. He is currently a year and a half away from the end of a deal that pays him £250,000 per week. Rooney, 28, was rumoured to be on the outs at United this past off-season when the team replaced long-term manager Sir Alex Ferguson with former Everton manager David Moyes. Rooney and Moyes had a tumultuous past when both were at Everton and the hiring sparked speculation that the striker could be on his way out of Old Trafford. However, Rooney has re-emerged as Uniteds best player in what has been a largely disappointing and injury-ravaged 2013-14 campaign for the defending Premier League champs. Rooney has scored nine goals in 16 League appearances, adding two more in five Champions League contests. United currently sits seventh in the Premier League table on 37 points, five back of sixth-place Everton. They resume Champions League play on Feb. 25 with a Round-of-16 tilt against Greek side Olympiacos. Markelle Fultz Jersey . Ending a nine-game losing streak?

Ware, the sentimental figure during the Cardinals title run last season, scored Friday night on the first touch of his official return since shattering his leg during last seasons NCAA tournament. The third-ranked Cardinals posted a school-record 19th straight win while welcoming back Ware in a 99-54 victory over Cornell. Ware, who played in an exhibition this season before sitting out Louisvilles first two games, entered with 14:06 left in the first half. He split defenders on a drive to cap a 20-point run that made it 22-2. "I was pretty upset at myself that I didnt dunk that one," Ware said. "I thought the big man would jump so I was looking for the contact. Im just glad that Im playing and just understanding myself again." Ware finished with five points and had two rebounds in 13 minutes. "Hes obviously not afraid to take it to people," Louisville coach Rick Pitino said. "He looked good out there." Wares first game action since his injury came in a Nov. 6 exhibition, 220 days after the lower bone in his right leg came through his skin after a spill in the NCAA tournament. Ware didnt play three days later against College of Charleston as Pitino said the 6-foot-2 sophomore was "still limping a bit" and planned to keep in him on the bench until he recovered. "I didnt feel it, but even my mom and my sisters who came to that practice were telling me that I was limping," said Ware, who also missed Tuesdays win against Hofstra. "At the time I was denying it completely like, Nah, Im fine, Im going to play, but Coach knew what he was doing." Ware showed his athleticism on a rebound he took all the way for a pretty left-handed finish to give Louisville a 39-11 lead with 6:24 remaining in the opening half. Wayne Blackshear led the Cardinals (3-0) with 20 points, hitting 4 of 5 3-pointers. Channe Behanan added 13 points and 12 rebounds.dddddddddddd Nolan Cressler scored 10 points for Cornell (0-4). The Cardinals broke the school record for consecutive wins set by the champion 1979-80 team. Louisville won 16 straight in taking its third title last season. This win marked the 1,700th victory in the programs 100th season. Louisville ranks 12th on the all-time win list. Cornell lost to a Top 10 for the second time in seven days, having fallen at Syracuse 82-60 after leading by 14 early in the game. "Youre going against the best teams in America, so you kind of get a barometer of where you may be as a program and as a group," Cornell coach Bill Courtney said. "Our team is so young that were still trying to figure ourselves out." Louisville forward Luke Hancock said the Big Reds fast start against the Orange was a factor in the teams preparation. "The fact that they played so well the first-half against Syracuse, it made us pretty nervous and made us on our toes," said Hancock, who finished with 12 points. A problem with the lights at the KFC Yum! Center caused a 15-minute delay prior to the start of the game. After that, it was all Louisville. Tied at 2, Louisville unleashed the latest of its patented "boom" scoring spurts less than 1 1/2 minutes into the game. Guards Russ Smith and Chris Jones helped the Cardinals score 12 straight points. That forced Cornell to take a timeout, down 14-2 with 16:08 remaining in the half. Two Louisville steals that led to dunks followed, forcing another timeout. Louisville erupted for a 35-2 run in Tuesday nights 97-69 win over Hofstra and closed its opening win against College of Charleston by scoring 22 of the games final 25 points. The Big Red used 15 players in the first half in an attempt to find any sort of success. They trailed 53-14 at halftime, shooting just 16 per cent (5 of 32) in the opening 20 minutes. Cornell shot 29 per cent for the game. ' ' '
