Wayne Rooney has been confirmed as the new manager of Birmingham City.<\/p>\n

The former England captain left MLS side DC United last week and has now returned to English football with the Championship outfit.<\/p>\n

Rooney, 37, has signed a three-and-a-half year deal with the Blues with immediate effect and has been joined in the dugout by ex-England team-mate Ashley Cole and former Manchester United team-mate John O\u2019Shea.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am absolutely delighted to be joining Birmingham City Football Club at such an exciting time, said Rooney. \u201cIt is very clear that they have a plan and are committed to realising their ambition for the club. We are fully aligned on what is expected.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have been building my managerial career, putting myself in challenging environments, to get me ready for this opportunity. It\u2019s a project that gives me a sense of purpose and I can\u2019t wait to get started.\u201d<\/p>\n
