LONDON. – Wayne Rooney filled up his £120,000 Audi with petrol after being spotted for the first time his Birmingham exit.
The England legend cast a glum figure as he got to work at the pump at a Cheshire petrol station.
Rooney, 38, wore a hooded puffer jacket to stave off the northern frost.
It’s the first time he’s been seen after being sacked by Birmingham last week.
Manchester United icon Rooney was shown the door by NFL legend Tom Brady and his fellow American backers after just 13 weeks in the dugout.
He was only able to win two of his 15 games following John Eustace’s exit in October, with Birmingham plummeting down the Championship table.
Fans turned on Rooney after the disastrous 3-0 defeat to Leeds on New Year’s Day.
And Tony Mowbray is now in charge at St Andrew’s as Birmingham bid to challenge for the playoffs again.
Rooney admitted it would “take some time” to get over his departure, having quit MLS side DC United for a return to Blighty.
And he is now spending quality time with wife Coleen, 37, plus kids Kai, 14, Klay, 10, Kit, 7, and Cass, 5. – The Sun
