Plymouth Argyle boss Wayne Rooney is keen on signing Liverpool sensation Jayden Danns on loan to boost his club’s survival hopes.
Wayne Rooney has endured a mixed start to life at Plymouth Argyle since taking charge in the summer. To ensure he helps the club survive in the Championship, the Manchester United legend is looking to reinforce his attack in the winter by signing Jayden Danns.
According to a report from The Sun, Rooney is interested in signing Danns on a short loan from Liverpool. Plymouth Argyle have struggled to score goals, and they feel bringing in the 18-year-old English youth international can help their cause.
Jayden Danns has been a part of the Merseyside club since his early days. He has come up the ranks at some pace. The teenager got promoted to their Under-21 setup in the summer and he has already featured in five matches for the first team. The young striker even has two goals at the highest level.
Plymouth want to add Danns to their squad
Jayden Danns is a huge prospect and is eager to get some important first-team action under his belt during the remainder of the season. The youngster was struggling with an injury, but he is now back fit, and Plymouth Argyle are one of the clubs that are looking to sign him on loan.
They are currently 19th in the Championship with four wins, five draws and seven defeats. Rooney’s men have only scored 17 goals in their 16 outings and to ensure they avoid the drop, the manager seeks attacking reinforcement.
He is looking at the loan market to bring in a top-quality forward, and Danns is quite high on their wishlist. The 18-year-old has all the qualities to succeed in the English second division. More importantly, this loan spell could be a great opportunity for the youngster to get some regular first-team action.
While Danns wants to be involved in the Liverpool first-team in the coming weeks, he could struggle to get minutes given the kind of depth Arne Slot has up top. The Dutch manager could instead look to send him out on loan if he feels that will aid in his development.
