He told The Times: “It’s huge, especially with what’s going on in Saudi, for the MLS to attract Messi.
“He won’t find it easy here. It sounds mad, but players who come in find it’s a tough league. The travelling, the different conditions in different cities, and there’s a lot of energy and intensity on the pitch.”
Rooney added: “Americans love winners. Above all, they want to see skill and to be entertained, and Messi brings all that.”
