​England boss Southgate offers help to Derby interim coach Rooney

England boss Gareth Southgate is offering to help Derby County player-coach Wayne Rooney.

The former England captain and Manchester United legend is in the hot seat at Derby, albeit temporarily.

The 35-year-old got his first win on Saturday in a 1-0 success over Millwall.

Southgate said, per The Sun: "All I would say is that if he ever needs any help, we're here to help him.

"We're keen to help all young English coaches. I also know Liam Rosenior there, who is also involved behind the scenes and is a young coach who is very promising, as well.

"We are just there to support, if needed. We want English coaches to do well."
