WAYNE ROONEY will complete his coaching exams this week after going back to school for his last year.

The ex-Manchester United and England star has flown through the course so far.

But he must make a final presentation to get his Pro Licence.

Rooney, 37, became Derby boss in 2021 before he had time to get his coaching badges.

And he has pushed on with his studies after taking charge of MLS side DC United last year.

Now Wazza will be quizzed by the FA exam board as one of a few dozen candidates at the same stage before officially graduating.

It is a key step towards any return to British football as a boss for the star, whose contract is up at the end of the MLS term.

Rooney has been in charge of DC United for 11 months, winning eight of his 32 games so far.

He earned a good reputation during his time at Derby as he guided the club through their tumultuous period.

And former teammate Dimitar Berbatov reckons Rooney has what it takes to eventually become Man United manager.

Berbatov told Betfred last month: “Not many players from my time at Manchester United have actually gone into management.

“But in my opinion, Wayne Rooney would like to be a future Manchester United manager and I’m pretty sure he’s going to be.

“He’s currently paying his dues in club management at the moment, gaining vital experience and getting better and better.

“So I’m pretty sure he will manage Manchester United one day.”
