Van Nistelrooy departs Man Utd as Ruben Amorim arrives

Date:

Ruud van Nistelrooy has exited Manchester United after not being offered a position in the backroom team of new manager Ruben Amorim.

The 48-year-old Dutchman took temporary charge of United following the departure of Erik ten Hag. During his brief stint, Van Nistelrooy led the team to three wins and a draw in four matches.

Despite his contributions, Amorim opted not to retain the former Netherlands striker, who had previously spent five seasons with United as a player. Van Nistelrooy joined United as an assistant coach on a two-year contract in July.

“Ruud is, and always will be, a Manchester United legend,” the club said in a statement which confirmed Van Nistelrooy’s exit.

“We are grateful for his contribution and the way in which he has approached his role throughout his time with the club. He will always be very welcome at Old Trafford.”

Alongside Van Nistelrooy, fellow coaches Rene Hake, Jelle ten Rouwelaar, and Pieter Morel have also departed. However, former United midfielder Darren Fletcher will continue in his role, serving as a bridge between the first team and the academy.

The club announced it will “confirm the full men’s first-team coaching composition” under Amorim’s leadership “in due course.”
