Ruud van Nistelrooy Poised to Become Leicester City Manager

The former Manchester United star is in advanced talks to replace Steve Cooper after Leicester's struggles leave them near the relegation zone.

Ruud van Nistelrooy is expected to be named Leicester City's new manager following productive talks this week.
Leicester sacked Steve Cooper on Sunday after just 12 Premier League matches, with the team sitting 16th in the table, one point above relegation.
Van Nistelrooy recently served as interim manager at Manchester United, winning three out of four matches, including two victories over Leicester.
The Dutchman previously managed PSV Eindhoven, where he won the KNVB Cup in 2023 before resigning due to internal issues at the club.
Leicester could confirm Van Nistelrooy's appointment before Saturday's match against Brentford, with the club opting for a manager without compensation costs after ruling out other candidates like Graham Potter and David Moyes.
