Wayne Rooney Reveals Desire To Manage

 

England and Manchester United captain Wayne Rooney has revealed he would like to become a manager when he retires from football. The 30years old made the admission during a Facebook live Q&A with his fans, with the questions being asked by team-mate Ashley Young.


Speaking from a hotel room in Beijing, where Manchester United will take on rivals Manchester City on Monday in the the International Champions Cup, Rooney said he is already preparing for a job in football after he finishes playing. 

He said “I would like to be manager when I finish playing, football is what I've done my whole life. I'm currently in the process of taking my coaching badges so hopefully when I finish playing I'll have that complete.”

Rooney is England's greatest-ever goalscorer and has been capped 115 times for the national team.
