Denny Solomona was offered to Sale and two other rugby union clubs, according to director of rugby Steve Diamond, who says his Premiership club have done nothing wrong in the signing of the record-breaking Super League winger.The Sharks confirmed the cross-code capture Tuesday morning after weeks of speculation amid a likely legal battle after the 23-year-old Auckland-born player failed to turn up for the start of preseason training with Castleford.The Tigers say they rejected three offers during the season for the former London Broncos winger, who had two years left on his contract, and are set to take the matter to the High Court.Diamond, speaking at a press conference at Sales training ground at Carrington, dismissed talk of under-hand dealings and says he is confident an agreement will be thrashed out between the clubs.Weve never wanted to go down the route of getting into any legal battles, Diamond said. We just wanted the deal done and Im sure the powers that be are getting on with that as we speak.I dont think weve done anything wrong at all to be perfectly honest. Players have agents and agents put players up on the market place. There were two other rugby union clubs that I know of who were in the market to sign Denny Solomona.Weve just got to bite our lip and get on with it and be candid. Weve got nothing to hide.Diamond says Solomona, who shot to prominence after scoring 42 tries for Castleford in 2016 but on Tuesday signed a three-year deal with Sale, will make his debut for the Sharks in Sundays Champions Cup match against holders Saracens at the AJ Bell Stadium after training with them for just over a week.The player, who is seen by Diamond as an outside centre or winger in the 15-man code, has also been registered to play in the Premiership and has received the necessary clearance from the rugby union authorities.The Sale boss says the player became available in the late summer after announcing his intention to play rugby union and apparently resigning from rugby league.I do understand Castlefords perspective, Diamond said. Hes one of their star players.What has happened to Cas has happened to me, I had three players leave me in the summer, thats the way it is.Dennys attention was brought to me not by an agent but by fellow players, fellow Samoan lads who play here that he is friendly with.His desire was to get playing rugby union. He said he wanted to play the game he grew up with. If it wasnt a club in England, he was going to go back to Auckland in the super franchises where he came from.In all honesty, the situation has been blown out of proportion. These things happen in sport every week where players move around. Its behaving professional and getting it done.I think were at the point now where were at a bit of an impasse and Im sure before too long that will be ironed out.There are two sides to all stories. I can say from day one that Sale have acted in the best interests of Sale and have done everything legitimately by the book. I think that will come out in the wash.Diamond says he does not believe the Solomona case will set a precedent and insists he would not stand in the way of any player wishing to leave Sale. That includes former Wigan and England rugby league winger Josh Charnley, who switched codes at the end of the 2016 Super League season.If I have a player here who says to me I want to play for another club, then Id let him go, Diamond added.There are very few that make the transition from one to the other. Denny has played rugby union up to being 19 so hes got the fundamentals.I threw Josh in and hes pretty much our most consistent player at the minute. Denny needs some game time to get that. Theres no point trying to play him in A team games and you can only do so much at training so exposure is what he needs.Castleford have appointed leading London barrister Nick Randall QC - whose other clients include England captain Wayne Rooney - and Leeds-based sports lawyer Richard Cramer to fight their case and have the backing of the Rugby Football League, whose chief executive Nigel Wood has expressed his concern to both the RFU and Premier Rugby.The RFL is also investigating Solomonas agent Andy Clarke.

Rooney did not travel with the Manchester United squad for their Europa League tie against Danish side FC Midjytlland this week and is likely to miss around six weeks of action with a knee injury.The problem may also rule Rooney out of Englands two warm-up matches for this summers European Championships, against Germany on March 26 and Holland on March 29. Stuart Pearce thinks Wayne Rooneys injury will give England a chance to experiment with other players in the run up to Euro 2016 Pearce feels that may actually benefit Roy Hodgsons preparations, as it will allow less established strikers such as Jamie Vardy and Harry Kane to get some valuable game time.I think its a real bonus, although Wayne wont see it like that, Pearce told Sky Sports News HQ. It freshens him up for the summer and gives Roy (Hodgson) the chance to look at a few of the other players. Rooney injury dilemma Rooney loss exposes Man Utds thin squad. What are their options? If Wayne was in the squad I think Roy would have felt obliged to play him in the warm-up games and that blocks a place for one of the younger players to come in and get some experience.We know what he can do and I dont think we would have learned anything from playing in the friendlies. Louis van Gaal says United will cope without captain Rooney Pearce does feel, however, that Rooneys absence will harm his club side.ddddddddddddIt certainly will affect them because they need forwards, he said. They needed a forward to supplement Wayne Rooney so without him theyre very, very short up front.They will miss him quite badly but theyre not chasing the title, theyre not chasing the Champions League, so the impact will only be seen in the Europa League.Former Manchester United defender Danny Higginbotham feels the loss of Rooney will completely alter the way the team plays. If Wayne was in the squad I think Roy would have felt obliged to play him in the warm-up games Stuart Pearce He gives them something different, he said. Hes quite willing to drop deeper and so when youve got pace either side of him, with (Jesse) Lingard and (Anthony) Martial, he provides the space for them to get into.Martial in particular likes to get in behind the defence and so what I think teams will do if hes up front is sit deep so there isnt that space to get into.So Manchester United will go back to what they used to be, which is a side that plays in front of teams.Higginbotham also feels Nicky Butts appointment as head of academy at United is a vital one, as several of the more recent junior graduates have only been given their chance due to injury. Jamie Carragher thinks Rooneys current form could be affected by how long hes been playing football They have always given young players a chance but, of the recent ones, other than (Jesse) Lingard, they have probably only been given those chances because of injuries, Higginbotham, himself a Manchester United academy graduate, told Sky Sports News HQ. Its not been because theyve been performing unbelievably well in the under-21s.As a club, theyve always had the mentality that age doesnt matter, you will get that opportunity.When you look back at the class of 92, they came through because they were good enough. Now the players are getting the chances because of injuries. Also See: Rooney injury dilemma Who are Midtjylland? Butt dreams of lasting legacy Who are Uniteds academy graduates? ' ' '
