England and Manchester captain Wayne Rooney has revealed he won’t shut
the door on his International career after Roy Hodgson quit as England manager
last night following Iceland’s shock win over England in the last 16 draw of
Euro 2016.
The Manchester United forward did not have his best game as Roy Hodgson’s men were humiliated on Monday night, with some calling for him to be axed from the squad before the start of this tournament.
However, Rooney
said after the game that he will make himself available for the next England
manager, and that he is still enjoying playing for his country.
‘It’s disappointing
tonight, but I enjoy and am proud playing for England,’ Rooney is quoted in the
Daily Mirror.‘I’ll be interested to see who the next manager is. If selected,
I’ll certainly be there.’
‘We can’t forget
he’s brought a lot of young players through and I think the future’s bright for
England,’ Rooney said.Unfortunately it hasn’t happened in this tournament but
hopefully, in the future there’s good things to come and although it’s
difficult to say and see that now, I think Roy has been good to the players and
I’ll be thanking him.’
