Rooney commented on the information about his debut in professional boxing

Wayne Rooney, the former England and Manchester United striker, commented on the rumor that he could soon make his debut in professional boxing. Rooney confirmed that he was in talks about a possible debut. But he also emphasized that his number one goal now is to return to coaching.

“Potential boxing match? You never know for sure. Yes, I have been contacted about this, but I think that at the moment I want to focus on returning to coaching and not on boxing. That’s my goal now,” Rooney said on The Overlap podcast.

Let us remember that in early January, Rooney resigned from the post of head coach of the Birmingham football club.
