New Leicester boss Ruud van Nistelrooy reveals his pain at leaving Manchester United but vows to stamp his authority on the Foxes.

Ruud van Nistelrooy ‘disappointed’ and ‘hurt’ after cutting ties with Man Utd - Van Nistelrooy returned to United as Erik ten Hag’s assistant in the summer and had a four-game interim spell following his compatriot’s sacking.

New Leicester boss Ruud van Nistelrooy was “astonished” by the amount of managerial offers he received on the back of his spell as Manchester United interim manager. The Dutchman had four games in caretaker charge at Old Trafford – two of them against Leicester – following Erik ten Hag’s sacking in October but left the club upon the appointment of Ruben Amorim.
