Wayne Rooney negotiates BBC pundit role after Plymouth dismissal

Wayne Rooney, recently dismissed as manager of Plymouth Argyle, is in talks with the BBC regarding a pundit role on the revamped Match of the Day following Gary Lineker's departure at the end of the season. The former Manchester United star could earn up to £200,000 annually based on his appearances. Sources indicate that Rooney, who previously garnered positive viewer feedback during his stint as a pundit at the Euros, is exploring several opportunities, with punditry being a significant option. Early negotiations with the BBC appear promising as Rooney considers his next career move. Alongside him, new hosts Gabby Logan, Mark Chapman, and Kelly Cates have been confirmed for the show. Rooney is also contemplating a return to management in the future after his recent experiences.
