Wayne Rooney and Manchester United raise the Europa League trophy following their 2-0 victory over Ajax.

Jose Mourinho and Manchester United proved all doubters wrong by winning the Europa League and ensuring a spot in next season's Champions League.

Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho has not ruled out Wayne Rooney staying at the club, saying the striker is "a very important player for us."

Rooney, 31, is contracted to United until 2019 but it has been speculated he could move away from Old Trafford this summer, after making 15 Premier League starts this season.

The England international came on as a late substitute on Wednesday night as United beat Ajax 2-0 in the Europa League final to book their place in next season's Champions League.

"Wayne was ready to play, was a big option," Mourinho said. "But the game was in the pocket so when you have 2-0 you have to control the game, you have to delay the changes, you have to bring players step by step, try to give a bit more. At that moment, I don't need. But Wayne was ready, and yesterday we were speaking and I was telling him that probably he could be crucial man of the match because he was ready.

"I told him and he knows that it's true. At this moment, he's in the best moment during the season. He can perfectly be here next season because he is always a very important player for us. If he stays with us next season, I'm more than happy with that."

As for Man United's summer dealings in the transfer market, one in which Mourinho and the club are expected to be very active, the manager said that CEO Ed Woodward knew what players he wanted and has for some time already.

"[Agents] don't have my number," Mourinho said. "Doesn't matter if it's Champions [League] or not. Ed Woodward has what I want, what I would like, for more than two months. So now it's for him, it's for the owners, it's for the people that work him and I just wait -- but I don't care about football now."

Animal lovers streaked unclad through London Zoo on a sponsored run to help save tigers from extinction. Many of those who took part stri*ped off everything and painted themselves in tiger stripes before jogging among the caged animals. The annual event in question was the Zoological Society for London’s (ZSL) Streak for Tigers – which raises money to help protect tigers and their habitats around the world. Tigers are classed as an endangered species with global populations on the decrease due to poaching and the increasing destruction of their natural habitats. It’s believed that there are now less than 6,000 wild tigers left worldwide. The event began at 7pm and the so-called Tiger Streakers – because a group of tigers is called a streak – were encouraged to let go of all their inhibitions and go completely unclad for a whole five to ten minutes. At the end of their run they were handed a foil blanket and to protect their modesty. Each runner pa...

A Nigerian-American basketball player has caused serious buzz on the internet after posing completely n*ked for a Magazine. Nneka Ogwumike is a Nigerian American basketball player who plays forward for the Los Angeles Sparks. The young woman caused a stir recently when she posed n*de for ESPN. Ogwumike will be one of 23 athletes to grace ESPN The Magazine’s annual Body Issue and one of its nine cover stars. “It’s always been something that I wanted to do,”  Ogwumike said.  “I think it’s mostly because of the elite collection of athletes that they pick. It attributes to your success individually because they don’t just pick anybody.” But this wasn’t the first time that ESPN called the Texas native. Four years ago, ESPN requested Ogwumike with her younger sister, Chiney, for the photo shoot but the two felt it wasn’t the right time yet. Chiney was fresh off garnering 2014 WNBA Rookie of the Year honors for the Connecticut Sun just a year after Nneka had won the same...
