The England captain has been assured of his future by the former Chelsea manager, though he insists that the 30-year-old's armband does not guarantee him a starting spot
Jose Mourinho has assured Wayne Rooney of his future at Manchester United, insisting the club captain will remain an important figure in his squad.
Having already promised that Rooney will never play in midfield under him, Mourinho again faced questions about the England international's future at Old Trafford following the club's arrival in China for the International Champions Cup, much to the Portuguese manager's dismay.
"I am quite surprised with so many question marks around this guy," he said in Shanghai.
"I know that at the national team level you have this capacity of trying to make things complicated for yourself, so what happened around him in the summer was not a surprise for me.
"But in my club we are not going to have that. He is the club captain, he is the manager's captain, he is the players' captain.
