Africa-Press – Tanzania. <\/strong><\/span>Plymouth Argyle sacked English manager Wayne Rooney on Tuesday after the club’s relegation fears have deepened in the English second-tier Championship division.<\/p>\n

“Plymouth Argyle can confirm that the club and Head Coach Wayne Rooney have mutually agreed to part ways with immediate effect,” it said in a statement.<\/p>\n

“Departing the club with Rooney will be Assistant Head Coach Mike Phelan and first team coach Simon Ireland,” Plymouth Argyle said, and thanked 39-year-old Rooney for his service and efforts.<\/p>\n

“Thanks also to all the staff who made me feel welcome and who make the club such a special place, the players and fans for their efforts and support during my time as Head Coach and I wish them all the best for the future,” Rooney said, adding that the club has a “special place” in his heart.<\/p>\n

“I will continue to look out for and take interest in their (Plymouth Argyle’s) results,” Rooney added.<\/p>\n

Former England and Manchester United star Rooney took charge of Plymouth in May but this season, the club got 13 losses in 23 matches to bottom the Championship standings.<\/p>\n

Rooney was previously sacked by Birmingham City in January after just 15 matches in charge.<\/p>\n
