English striker Wayne Rooney has revealed his future plan to establish a football academy for the next generation of whiz kids for his boyhood club Everton.
After a transfer move from Manchester United to Everton last summer, Rooney have netted 11 times in 34 games for the Merseysiders so far this season.
"The aim is to consistently do well individually and as a team," said Rooney. "It is about me and the team trying to find that consistent level and we will try to do that in the next four games.
"There have been good and bad moments this season. Sam has steadied things for us and got us into the top half of the table. It is important we end the season well and get as many points as possible from these four games. We do not want to end the season on a bad run of results and have that hanging over us during the summer.
"I think if we can end it well and in a positive frame of mind, we will then have the summer off and come back for pre-season ready to go.
"I want to be here and play for this Club. The Club has shown it's intentions with the money it has spent and players it has brought in, in the past couple of years.
"The new stadium is being planned and the Club has shown a clear idea of where it wants to go.
"Hopefully, we will have a team in a new stadium and trying to help us win trophies.
"[Now] it is about trying to help the Club lay foundations for the next generation, for it to move forward – it is about the future of the Club.
"That is what we want – we want the Club to move forward… as long as the Club is showing improvement that is what we are all looking for."
