A fan pundit anticipated that Wayne Rooney would release players.

The most recent manager of Birmingham City is Wayne Rooney.

The 37-year-old has taken over for John Eustace since the new owners of St. Andrew’s decided to shift course.

Many people were surprised by the former Blues manager’s departure from the Championship squad because they were sixth in the standings and in the play-off spots at the time.

Wayne Rooney might want to offload someone at Birmingham City in January.

As he looks to build the squad to his liking, Rooney has listed a number of potential player departures that he could make in January, according to Birmingham fan pundit Mike Gibbs.

However, Gibbs thinks it may take up to six weeks to get a better idea of who will be left on the outside looking in after the new manager’s arrival.

I believe he will be more concerned with who he can hire and what gaps need to be filled than who he plans to look to oust.

I believe that he might wish to let go of a few players who are possibly on the fringe of the first team but still have significant contracts.

“I think he’ll give them a good look, and every manager has their own preferences for players,” I said.

We’ve seen plenty of instances where a player who hadn’t played a single minute all season suddenly found himself in the starting lineup under a new manager.

I believe I’ve mentioned it before, but I noticed Hogan shifting.

Gary Gardner is regaining his fitness, but given his age of 31, I think he’s still under a good deal.

“I could picture him perhaps leaving.

At the very end of the window, Marc Roberts was said to be leaving as well.

You could say that we now have a little bit of cover there.

I have the impression that someone like Marc Roberts might leave.

“However, it’s going to be fascinating to watch his first team selection truly because he’ll start to get a sense, having practiced with them for a week and a half, who he likes and who he doesn’t.

It will therefore be a fascinating subject to address in roughly six weeks.

On October 21, Middlesbrough, who are currently in 16th place, will be Rooney’s first opponent.

Will the January transfer window be active for Birmingham City?
Birmingham has already been mentioned in connection with an attempt to sign a Derby County quartet that Rooney collaborated with at Pride Park.

The new owners have already demonstrated a great deal of desire, so the January transfer window may be busy for the Championship team.

Rooney will want to add a few players to the squad in order to make his mark and fit his style of play.

The team may also require signings in order to maintain its current promotion campaign, particularly in light of the intense competition they face in the second division this season.
