Happy Friday! We are just about 48 hours out from Wayne Rooney’s first match as head coach of D.C. United. If that doesn’t throw a little pep in your step heading into the weekend, I don’t know what will.
D.C. United continues to make moves to build out Rooney’s squad, signing Victor Pálsson from FC Schalke and David Ochoa from Real Salt Lake just this week. Let’s hope the Black-and-Red have all the pieces they need (or are close to acquiring them) as the transfer window is about to slam shut on August 4.
Here’s a fantastic first interview of Rooney and great behind-the-scenes content by Claudia Pagán to keep you busy until Sunday:
Back where he belongs.
