Birmingham City are expected to sack Wayne Rooney today, after Monday's 3-0 defeat at Leeds United, Sky Sports News can confirm.
Rooney was appointed at St Andrew's on October 11 on a three-and-a-half-year deal with the club sixth in the Championship following back-to-back wins under sacked manager John Eustace.
But Rooney has seen his team lose nine of the 15 matches they've played since he took over, leaving the club in 20th place in the Championship table.
Birmingham suffered a 3-0 defeat at Leeds on New Year's Day.
The former England and Manchester United captain was the first managerial hire by new Birmingham owner Tom Wagner and his Knighthead Capital Management group, who bought the Championship club in August.
