Birmingham City has hired Wayne Rooney as manager on a three-and-a-half year contract.

Rooney replaces John Eustace, who was fired on Monday. Rooney left DC United last weekend.

Cook is understood to be the driver behind the deal. Last year Cook, previously the chief executive of Manchester City, was part of Chris Kirchner’s failed bid to buy Derby County, the last club Rooney managed in England.
