Rooney, 39, has led the Championship side to 19th in the league with four wins, five draws and seven losses.

However, Plymouth have only found the net 17 times in their opening 16 games.

This has seen Rooney look to the loan market in order to add reinforcements in January.

They are interested in Liverpool teenage striker Jayden Danns.

The 18-year-old is back in training after recovering from injury and is aiming to appear in games before the new year.

Reds boss Arne Slot could opt to loan out Danns should he decide it is best for his development.

A temporary switch to Home Park Stadium could be beneficial, as Danns could learn from Rooney’s wealth of experience.

Danns has already made five first-team appearances for Liverpool in his career.

He scored twice for the club in their 3-0 FA Cup victory over Southampton back in February.

He also made an appearance for Liverpool in the Carabao Cup final victory over Chelsea.

Meanwhile, Liverpool’s owners Fenway Sports could buy a club in France at the second attempt.

The Americans pulled out of a move for struggling Bordeaux but have kept their contacts working on an alternative.

Several French clubs have changed ownership recently, and many are open to doing business at the right price.

Rooney’s most recent game in charge of Plymouth ended in a 2-2 draw against Watford.

The Hornets took the lead however their fans produced a bizarre delayed reaction.

Argyle struck late to earn a point as Andre Gray fired in a curling effort in the 96th minute.
