Rooney Negotiates Sounders Trial

Macclesfield Town youngster John Rooney has joined Major League Soccer outfit Seattle Sounders on a week’s trial.

The 19 year old midfielder came through Macc’s ASE programme in 2009 and was a professional at Moss Rose last season. However, the youngster rejected the offer of a new deal with the Silkmen and trained with Huddersfield Town during the summer with a view to a move there.

Sounders Manager Sigi Schmid said:

“We want to see where he’s at and what he’s like as a player.”

Last season, he had a trial at Championship side Derby County but was not offered a deal.
