Gylfi Sigurdsson 'in talks' to join Wayne Rooney's DC United in MLS transfer

Former Everton midfielder Gylfi Sigudsson could be set for a return to football to reunite with former teammate Wayne Rooney at D.C. United.

The 78-time Iceland international was officially released by the Toffees at the end of the 2021-22 season and has not played in two years. Having spent the majority of his club career in England, a prospective move stateside would see him team up with Rooney once more, with the pair having played together at Goodison Park.

Both players signed for the Blues in the summer of 2017 as part of a flurry of signings under then manager Ronald Koeman, with Sigurdsson and Rooney two of the standout names during that window. However, they would only play one season alongside each other on Merseyside, with the latter moving to the D.C. United after a year with the club he supported as a boy.
