Manchester United’s summer renovation under Ruben Amorim is starting to take shape, as the club prepare for the season ahead.
There has been increasing speculation over the return of former United players in coaching or development positions as INEOS has restructured the team’s backroom staff and sporting organisation.
One former name who departed from Old Trafford this season was Ruud van Nistelrooy.
In the summer, the former Dutch international joined United as a member of Erik ten Hag’s new coaching staff.
But after ten Hag was fired, CentreDevils exclusively reported that Ruud van Nistelrooy was chosen to take over as manager temporarily.
His tenure as temporary manager has been tremendously successful; he resigned following a four-game winning streak.
The Dutch coach improved the team’s performance throughout this time, leading to three victories, a tie, and 11 goals.
As exclusively reported by CentreDevils at the time, Ruud van Nistelrooy joined Leicester City shortly after.
He replaced Steve Coogan who was sacked after their 2-1 loss to former manager Enzo Maresca’s Chelsea.
Unfortunately, Leicester City got relegated and the club decided to part ways with the Dutch manager as he now looks for a new job.
However, Van Nistelrooy isn’t the only ex-Manchester United coach who may be looking for a new coaching role elsewhere.

TalkSport report that, if Thomas Frank leaves Brentford for Tottenham Hotspur, Kieran McKenna is on their list of possible replacement coaches.
Speculation is mounting that Thomas Frank wants the Spurs job, so The Bees will need to look for another man to take his place in the dugout.
Many top-flight managers highly regard McKenna as a coach, even if Ipswich was relegated from the Premier League this season.
When Chelsea and Brighton were looking for new managers last summer, they approached the 39-year-old Northern Irishman.
Many Manchester United fans will remember Kieran McKenna from his time at Old Trafford when he served under the likes of Jose Mourinho and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
Brentford clearly believe that McKenna can continue the work done by Thomas Frank and take over competently if the Danish coach left for Spurs.
Now that Ange Postecoglou has been removed from his post, the managerial merry go round in the coming days and weeks will be very interesting.
