Requested by certain Belgian supporters to take over from Domenico Tedesco, Ruud van Nistelrooy has found his new employer. The legendary former Manchester United striker will become the head coach of Leicester City and a certain Wout Faes.
Dismissed from PSV Eindhoven in May 2023, Ruud van Nistelrooy then took a direction that he knows very well. Returning to Manchester United, the former Dutch striker became Erik ten Hag’s assistant, before taking on a temporary role while awaiting the arrival of Ruben Amorim.
Once again free from any contract, van Nistelrooy, 48, has been cited in various places since the beginning of November. At Burnley, in particular, to replace a certain Scott Parker.
At home, many have also mentioned his name when discussing the succession of Domenico Tedesco. Van Nistelrooy has not yet had a big result as a coach (he won the Cup and the Super Cup with PSV in 2022-2023), but he is popular.
Ruud van Nistelrooy to become Wout Faes’ new manager at Leicester
Moreover, the striker who also worked for Real Madrid and Malaga is indeed on the verge of finding a job… but not really the one we initially thought of.
Indeed, the entire English and international press announces that Ruud van Nistelrooy will become the new coach… of Leicester City. The agreements would already be sealed between the different parties and all that would be missing was formalization in this matter. The legendary former Manchester United striker will therefore find himself with a Red Devil in his hands: Wout Faes.
