Manchester United captain Wayne Rooney is "going nowhere", according to manager Jose Mourinho.

Mourinho dismissed reports that the England forward was told to leave Old Trafford to get regular first‑team football.

Rooney, 31, has not started a league game since the 3‑1 defeat to Watford last month and has missed United's last two games with injury.

Mourinho says Rooney is not happy as he has been on the bench for a while however he is not going anywhere anytime soon.

Meanwhile Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola says captain Vincent Kompany has a future at the club, but needs "faith to play regularly" after a run of injuries.

Kompany was replaced at half time in their 1‑0 loss to Manchester United in the English Football League Cup Match earlier in the week.

Guardiola says he was injured many times and they are trying to give him faith to play again.

Meanwhile, in the Premier League Arsenal will play Sunderland at 11.30pm tonight.
