Wayne Rooney is one of three former Premier League players to have expressed an interest in the currently vacant managerial role at Southampton, according to reports.
The former Manchester United striker is currently in charge of MLS side DC United and was recently snubbed for the vacant role at Everton after Frank Lampard's departure. Rooney's former England teammates Steven Gerrard and Frank Lampard are also said to be interested in the role at Southampton, who parted company with Nathan Jones on Sunday.
According to reports made via 90min, intermediaries from each of their camps have touched base with the Saints, with Jesse Marsch and Dean Smith also forming part of an early list of candidates. BetVictor currently prices Rooney at 33/1 to take up the job on the south coast.
