Wayne Rooney's managerial stint at DC United is over after they failed to make the MLS play-offs.
Wayne Rooney plans to return to England after leaving his job as the manager of MLS side DC United. Rooney parted ways with the Washington club after failing to take them into the play-offs.
The former Manchester United captain moved to DC United in July 2022, shortly after resigning as the manager of Derby County after two years with the Rams. Rooney's managerial win per centage across his two clubs in management is just 27..5. A DC United statement said: “We have spoken with Wayne and agreed it is best for us to part ways at this time. This decision creates the avenue for our next general manager to have the full opportunity to impart a new philosophy and structure onto our sporting operations, which begins with the critical identification of a head coach who will best align with this.
“We are grateful to Wayne Rooney for all he has done for our club and for soccer in the nation’s capital, first as a DC United player and captain and most recently as our coach. He remains an important part of the DC United family and a valued and cherished friend.” Rooney said: “It’s just the right time. I think I’ve done everything I can to try and get the club into play-offs. It’s not one single thing which has happened, it’s about timing in your career. I have really enjoyed my time here. But I just feel it’s the right time to go back to England. What lies ahead, I don’t know.”
