MADRID TARGET ... Wayne Rooney
REAL MADRID have stepped up their chase for Wayne Rooney by drafting in super-agent Pini Zahavi.
The Spanish giants want football's best-known middle-man to try to negotiate a deal with Manchester United. And Roo is one of Real chief Florentino Perez's top summer targets.
A Madrid source said: "Zahavi has been told to do all he can to try to bring Rooney to the Bernabeu. The club are confident a deal can be done."
Speculation about the England striker's future has intensified following revelations about United's precarious finances.
Perez, who signed Cristiano Ronaldo from United in a world-record £80million switch last year, normally gets what he wants.
Employing Zahavi shows Real are serious in their pursuit of Rooney, 24.
Zahavi is the go-to guy for all major deals in world football.
The Israeli, who also represents Rio Ferdinand, was the man who brought Roman Abramovich to Chelsea.
