Wayne has been able to experience some time away with Coleen after he was sacked as Birmingham boss at the beginning of January.

His disastrous spell there saw the Manchester United legend win just two of his 15 games in charge.

As part of his statement after leaving Birmingham, Rooney outlined that he would take some time away from the game to spend time with his family before taking his next job.

He said: "I would like to thank Tom Wagner, Tom Brady and Garry Cook for the opportunity to manage Birmingham City FC and the support they all gave me during my short period with the club.

"Football is a results business – and I recognise they have not been at the level I wanted them to be.

"However, time is the most precious commodity a manager requires and I do not believe 13 weeks was sufficient to oversee the changes that were needed.

"Personally, it will take me some time to get over this setback. I have been involved in professional football, as either a player or manager, since I was 16.

"Now, I plan to take some time with my family as I prepare for the next opportunity in my journey as a manager.

"Finally, I wish Birmingham City FC and its owners my best wishes in the pursuit of their ambitions."

Rooney's successor, Tony Mowbray has experienced a positive start to life as Birmingham manager and is unbeaten in the league.

The club sit 20th in the Championship, seven points off the relegation zone with a game in hand.
