WAYNE ROONEY could be set for a shock return to English football as Birmingham reportedly eye up a move for the Three Lions legend.<\/p>\n

The DC United boss, 37, cast doubt over his future with the MLS club earlier this week with his contract set to expire in December.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

And now he could be given a way out as Championship side Birmingham emerge as a possible destination for the Manchester United icon.<\/p>\n

The Blues, part-owned by NFL legend Tom Brady, have made a strong start to the season under John Eustace – who has a contract until 2025.<\/p>\n

SunSport understands the club are preparing for the eventuality of Eustace leaving the club.<\/p>\n

There is no indication he will be sacked after three wins and two draws from their opening five league games.<\/p>\n

However, he has been mooted as a possible successor to Michael Beale at Rangers should the Scottish giants seek a replacement.<\/p>\n

Rooney last coached in England during the 2021\/22 season when he took charge of crisis-stricken Derby.<\/p>\n

The Rams had a 21-point deduction and were relegated from the Championship despite him doing an impressive job under the circumstances.<\/p>\n

He then took the DC United job last year – who were also struggling and finished bottom of the Eastern Conference.<\/p>\n

They sit ninth out of 15 teams in the 2023 campaign, with Rooney recently vocalising his discontent at his own situation as the club prepare for the final six weeks of the regular season.<\/p>\n

Earlier this month, he told the Washington Post: "I am slightly disappointed and frustrated there has been no contact for two months.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

"We asked about a new deal. We can sit down and talk about it. We haven\u2019t heard back.<\/p>\n

"Either way, I can take whatever the situation is. I was hoping we would have, either way, at least spoken about it. That hasn\u2019t been the case.<\/p>\n

"That\u2019s frustrating because, either way, I\u2019d rather know what\u2019s the plan because we have to plan for next season. We need to do it earlier rather than later.<\/p>\n

"The fact we haven\u2019t heard back is probably signalling one thing, but I\u2019m sure they\u2019ll have their reasons for that. So I\u2019ll wait and see."<\/p>\n
