Birmingham head coach Wayne Rooney has admitted that he had offers from Saudi Arabia. In one week, the 37-year-old managed to leave D.C. United from MLS and immediately signed a deal with Birmingham until 2027.

It will be nice to focus on training and matches because I have a team above me that I can trust with everything else. Maybe that wasn't the case at my previous two clubs," The Guardian quoted Rooney as saying.
