Manchester United great Roy Keane believes it would be "madness" for Wayne Rooney to make a move to China.

"No way Wayne Rooney should be going to China," he told ITV.

"He can still play football at the top level in England, Germany, Spain, Italy. Going to China? Madness. He's 31 years of age, there's plenty left yet for Wayne Rooney to do in Europe.

"I don't know if he should go, but he'll want to go," Scholes added on BT Sport.

"Wayne is a player that wants to play football every week, whether it's a big game, a small game he wants to play. This will be hurting him at the minute.

"Not being selected for the bigger games, okay, he might have played in this game if he was fit, but he'll get frustrated and I don't see him hanging about if he's not going to be playing in the big games."
