Former Tranmere midfielder Jason McAteer has confirmed his interest in the vacant managerial position at Prenton Park.
The League One outfit are searching for a new boss after Ronnie Moore was sacked last week after three years in charge.
McAteer, who played at Tranmere between 2004 and 2007, said: "I`ve made the club aware of my interest in the job and am waiting for them to get back to me."
Birkenhead-born McAteer, 37, has made Rovers aware of his interest but could face competition from the likes of John Barnes, Paul Ince and Steve Coppell.
