Chelsea goalkeeper Petr Cech admits he would be
delighted if the west London club signed Wayne
Rooney from Manchester United this summer.
The 27-year-old's future at Old Trafford is
currently uncertain after former boss Sir Alex
Ferguson claimed the striker had asked to leave
the Premier League champion in the closing
stages of last season.
Arsenal and Paris Saint-Germain have been
credited with an interest in Rooney but Cech is
hoping the England international moves to
Stamford Bridge should he opt for a change of
scenery – but only if Jose Mourinho wants him.
"I could see him in a Chelsea shirt," the Czech
Republic international told Sky Sports. "Players
can change shirts and obviously he had a
fantastic career with Manchester United and
sometimes players need new challenges.
Sometimes the consequences are the way that
you are looking for the new challenge and change
of the shirt.
"So if that happened, obviously he is a fantastic
player and he will be welcome to our squad, but
now we are only in the moment of speculation
about it so we will see what this week will bring.
He's a great player and you always want to see
great players in your team."
Chelsea has also been heavily linked with Napoli's
forward Edinson Cavani, although Cech admits he
wouldn't try to influence Mourinho into signing
the Uruguay star or any other player.
"I could see anybody in a Chelsea shirt, it
depends if Jose Mourinho wants to see those
players in the Chelsea shirt," he added.
"So I believe that he has his own ideas about the
team, he knows exactly what he wants in the
team. And as I said, now the transfer window
opens and we will see what will be the movement
in our squad in reality."
