Wayne Rooney Birmingham City’s former coach has been declared redundant and was sacked recently. Rooney made his comeback in the English football, by joining hands with the Blues on 11 October,2023 based on a three and half year contract. Although, they were never a good match. His career with Birmingham started with a loss of 1-0 at Middlesbrough.
Just after 83 days of signing in as the in-charge of the Championship Club, Rooney got sacked. Out of 15 games with their 3-0 loss at Leeds, it has been their ninth defeat. John Eustace who was replaced by Rooney had left Birmingham City at the 6th position. With former Manchester United and England forward, Rooney coming in, the Blues have now slipped to the 20th position.
Professional coach Steve Spooner will now take up the Blues’ reigns replacing Rooney. Rooney on his replacement said, “Football is a results business and I recognize they’ve not been at the level I wanted them to be,” he also added that it would take some time for him to get over this ‘set-back.’ He now plans to take a sabbatical and spend some time with his family and close ones.

With a career of over two decades, Rooney has a net worth of $207 Million. He was paid $1.6 Million a year at the Birmingham City. He was indeed paid thrice more than the ousted coach Eustace. Rooney was also the highest-paid player in the Premier League.
Why was Tom Brady unhappy with Wayne Rooney?
Wayne Rooney exits leaving the Blues six points above the relegation zone Ironically now, Cook on Rooney’s impeachment said that for the sake of St. Andrews’ upheaval the necessary things have to be done. Rooney had just won two matches in 13 weeks. Rooney said that he doesn’t believe that he was given enough time to bring about the changes needed.
Although the Board and the team’s American owner, Knighthead was not of the same opinion as the former coach. After suffering defeat by Hull City, Birmingham players were uncomfortable to oblige with Rooney’s style of playing. After the defeat at Leeds,his removal was kind of anticipated.
Birmingham’s unacceptable performance with Stoke City with a score of 3-1 also insinuated Tom Brady against the coach. Brady is a minority stake-holder of the club and he had better expectations from the former coach. Not being able to show expected results and consecutive losses coerced Rooney to part ways with his managerial position at Birmingham City.
Rooney suffered four losses in his first five games. This has made the Blues slide down the table rapidly. The 38-year-old is now accused of the Blues’ pathetic form. This created a fallout between Brady and other stakeholders and Rooney. Consequently, he was sacked from his position as the head coach.
