Wayne Rooney retires from playing to become Derby County manager
England and Manchester United all-time record goalscorer Wayne Rooney has retired from playing to become Derby County's manager. Rooney has been Derby's acting interim manager since November but has now been given a two-and-a-half-year contract to take on the role permanently. The 35-year-old had moved to Derby last year in a player-coach role and scored seven goals in 35 matches.
