Ruud van Nistelrooy is likely to become Leicester City's new manager, succeeding Steve Cooper.
Leicester are 16th in the Premier League rankings, having won only twice since their promotion back to the top division. The Foxes have now turned to Van Nistelrooy, who has been looking for work in England since leaving Manchester United.
The 48-year-old returned to Manchester United this summer as Erik ten Hag's assistant. He was recruited back to work with his compatriot at Old Trafford after scoring 150 goals in 219 games for the Red Devils during his five-season playing career.
Following Ten Hag's dismissal last month, Van Nistelrooy took over on an interim basis and guided the team to a four-game winning streak. His tenure as interim manager featured victories over Leicester in the Carabao Cup and Premier League.
However, it was determined that he would quit his position with the arrival of Ruben Amorim from Sporting Lisbon and his coaching team.
Leicester are now set to give Van Nistelrooy a chance to return to senior management in the Premier League. The Dutchman formerly coached PSV Eindhoven in the 2022/23 season, winning the KNVB Cup and Johan Cruyff Shield. He departed PSV before the end of his first season as manager, alleging a lack of board support.
