    Birmingham have been linked with Wayne Rooney in recent weeks, and Eustace's sacking could open the door for Rooney to return to English football.<\/p>\n

    Rooney recently left his post at DC United, and he said: "It's the right time. I've done everything I can to get this club into the playoffs. It's not a single thing that's happened. It's about timing.<\/p>\n

    \u201cWhat lies ahead, I don't know. I've seen a lot of reports in the media. I'm going back with nothing lined up. I want to say on record to everyone involved in the club. Staff, players: I'm grateful.\u201d<\/p>\n
