England star striker Wayne Rooney has been tipped to move to the Chinese Super League at the end of the season for a possible £140 million (Rs 1,158 crores) transfer.

According to British tabloid, The Sun, due to his love for gambling, Coleen is afraid that the Manchester United skipper might blow all the money and will block his move. It was revealed yesterday that Rooney reportedly blew £500,000 (Rs 4.13 crore) on roulette and blackjack in a casino in March.

A source said: "The money on offer is astronomical and Coleen could see the sense in Wayne going if he is doing it for the family's future. But that would all fall apart if he was gambling it all away."

"Coleen knows she wouldn't be there all the time to keep an eye on him. Sheloves her life in England and wants the children educated here. Though they could visit, Wayne would be on his own much of the time," the source added.
