Wayne Rooney will be part of Prime Video's broadcast team for the massive Champions League clash between Manchester City and Real Madrid.

Pep Guardiola's side host Madrid in the first leg of their Champions League knockout phase play-off clash on Tuesday night before the return fixture in the Spanish capital eight days later.

Rooney was sacked as Plymouth manager at the start of January, having endured a disastrous reign at Home Park. He oversaw just oversaw just four league wins, all of which came at home, and left with the Pilgrims rock bottom of the Championship, reports The Mirror.

The Manchester United icon has stepped back into punditry by returning to The Overlap's Stick to Football podcast. And he will now be on the screens to provide analysis of City's play-off first leg against Madrid on Tuesday.

Rooney will join former Liverpool star Daniel Sturridge, AC Milan legend Clarence Seedorf and three-time Premier League title winner Gael Clichy on the punditry team. Gabby Logan will anchor the matchday show, with Jon Champion and Alan Shearer on commentary duty.

In a statement, Prime said: "Prime has signed England and Manchester United legend Wayne Rooney to its UEFA Champions League punditry team, and he will make his debut tomorrow night when Manchester City take on Real Madrid in the first leg of their heavyweight Knockout Phase Play-Off clash.

"UCL winner Rooney will join Daniel Sturridge, Clarence Seedorf and Gael Clichy on the punditry team at the Etihad Stadium tomorrow night. The group will provide expert analysis from the moment coverage starts at 6.30pm, ahead of the 8pm kick-off available exclusively on Prime.

"Prime Video’s inaugural season of UEFA Champions League coverage in the UK and Ireland includes the top-pick match every Tuesday which is available to millions of households at no extra cost to their Prime membership."

At the end of January, Rooney signaled his intention to one day return to management. Before taking charge of Plymouth, the England legend endured a disastrous spell at Birmingham City, a mixed period at DC United and a tough stint at Derby County.

"I would like to go back in [to management]," he said on the Stick to Football podcast, to the surprise of former Manchester United team-mate Gary Neville. "But it would have to be the right club. Certainly the right club."

"I think you always have that ego, don't you? You always have that confidence you could go in and get the best out of a bad or difficult situation. Obviously, that wasn't the case [at Plymouth]. I am going to enjoy time with my family, though."

Having claimed 13 wins against City as a player, scoring 12 goals, Rooney will now provide analysis for their crucial clash with Madrid. Los Blancos beat the reigning Premier League champions in last season's quarter-finals.

It has been a tough season for City and they could only manage a 22nd place finish in the league phase of Europe's premier competition. Madrid meanwhile finished 11th to set up the play-off clash with Guardiola's men.
