After unsuccessful spells at Derby County, DC United and Birmingham City, Rooney endured a dismal spell at Plymouth, where he lasted just a few months before being sacked following a poor run of form that saw the club drop to the bottom of the Championship.
However, Rooney's professional working style and reputation still seem to attract certain teams looking for a bold change on the coaching bench.
According to The Sun , Macclesfield are considering Rooney as a replacement for Robbie Savage, who is set to leave the club to join Forest Green Rovers, a League Two side. Savage, a former player and co-owner of Macclesfield, led the team to an impressive promotion with 109 points after 42 games last season.

However, the move to Rooney may not be easy, with the former striker recently stating that he is happy with his television work and is not ready to return to management.
“I’m doing television and I’m really enjoying it, so that’s where I want to focus at the moment,” Rooney told talkSPORT. His wife, Colleen Rooney, also confirmed that her husband is happy with his football analysis and podcasting.
That uncertainty hasn't stopped Macclesfield from looking for a worthy replacement for Savage. The club have shown great ambition over the past few years and signing Rooney would be a bold move to boost their profile and attract media attention.
Meanwhile, the story at Plymouth continues to be interesting as the club has appointed Tom Cleverley, another former Manchester United player, as head coach, replacing Rooney's successor Miron Muslic, who has just moved to Schalke.
