Derby County approaches Paul Warne, asks Liam Rosenior to step down as manager

Derby County Football Club board held a meeting with Liam Rosenior and told him he is no longer in charge. Liam, however, is still on the staff. In the meantime, Derby County had sent an official to talk to Rotherham United about a vacancy that Pride Park had made for Paul Warne. It seems the deal has been signed, and Wayne Rooney’s place in Derby County will finally have a permanent placement. Wayne Rooney is currently Head Coach of DC United in Washington DC in the USA.

Back to the story about Liam Rosenior and he was told to step down, but the fans seem to be in two minds about him. Some feel he needed more time. But as far as Paul Warne goes, he informed a tabloid that this was a rumor, and he is yet to get a call from Derby County about the appointment. A friend had dropped in a congratulatory note, and he responded to that as news.

Some fans, however, said they were looking for a permanent manager. A fan suggested that Liam is a good coach, but Paul Warne would be a fantastic manager if that happens.


When the club was sent for relegation, Wayne Rooney had left Derby County three months ago. Wayne, at that time, felt he wanted to stay on ad manager and bring up the club, but it all depended on a takeover plan. Since the takeover didn’t happen, Wayne left to join the Washington DC-based United DC, which is a part of Major League Soccer in the USA.

Warne, in the meantime, has another year of his contract left with Rotherham and sources claim that the owner and Chairman Tony Stewart have plans to extend his current contract. It seems Derby County has shown willingness to pay compensation for the contract for Paul Warne to Rotherham United.
