Wayne Rooney is expected to be confirmed as the head coach of Championship side Plymouth Argyle on Saturday after holding talks about the vacancy.<\/b><\/p>\n

Rooney, 38, is keen to re-establish his reputation after a disastrous spell at Birmingham<\/a> last season, when he lost nine games out of 15.<\/p>\n

Argyle are looking for a new boss after the dismissal of Ian Foster<\/a> towards the end of last season.<\/p>\n

Director of football Neil Dewsnip and coach Kevin Nancekivell took over for the remainder of the campaign and guided Plymouth to safety, ironically at Birmingham\u2019s expense.<\/p>\n

Dewsnip knows Rooney from his time as a coach at Everton\u2019s academy.<\/p>\n

Rooney made 763 appearances as a player during spells with Everton, Manchester United, MLS club DC United and Derby.<\/p>\n

He moved into a player-coach role with the Rams in November 2020 and announced his retirement two months later, after being named permanent manager.<\/p>\n

The former England striker oversaw 85 games at Derby before moving back to America to become manager of former club DC United.<\/p>\n

Rooney was then appointed Birmingham manager in October 2023, but he was sacked less than three months later.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
