Moyes: We want to keep Rodwell

Everton boss David Moyes says he will do everything in his power to keep Jack Rodwell at the club, amidst interest from Manchester United.

Sir Alex Ferguson is reportedly ready to offer £25 million for the Everton midfielder, but David Moyes warned interested clubs that Rodwell would not be available on the cheap.

“I am reluctant to sell Rodwell because I’m trying to build a football team, not dismantle one. I just couldn’t imagine Liverpool really wanting to sell one of their own, Steven Gerrard or Jamie Carragher, too easily,“ Moyes said.

“They have always done everything to keep them. It is the same with me. I wanted to keep Wayne Rooney. I also want to keep Jack.

“I am reluctant to sell my best players. I don’t see that as being good for any manager.

“But I also understand that there may be financial situations which might mean that has to be the case.”
