Man United told to agree Van Nistelrooy deal amid big development today

Man United fans are demanding the club agree a new deal with Ruud van Nistelrooy so he joins Ruben Amorim’s staff when he takes over as manager on Monday (11th November).

The 48-year-old initially returned to Old Trafford as assistant manager during the summer but became the interim manager after Erik ten Hag was sacked.

Van Nistelrooy put together an undefeated run of four games during his time in charge, but his long-term future is currently unclear and he provided a cryptic answer when asked about it after United’s 3-0 win against Leicester City on Sunday (10 November).

He told Sky Sports, “It felt like closure for that period, and the future is open, that’s the way I felt it, and it was a beautiful moment to be able to share that with the supporters.

“The most important thing is the football club and I’m here to support that in my role and I want to continue doing that in the future.”

Van Nistelrooy also confirmed that after his time in charge, the club will communicate with him and the other staff whose futures are up in the air.

Man United supporters want Ruud van Nistelrooy to stay at Old Trafford

Amorim will now commence his role as the United boss, but Football Insider revealed that he would like someone in his coaching setup who already knows and understands the club’s predicament.

Whether that person ends up being Van Nistelrooy will remain to be seen, but United supporters have made it clear they’d like him to stick around.
