Leicester part company with manager Van Nistelrooy

Leicester City Football Club has announced the departure of manager Ruud van Nistelrooy, following a string of poor results in the Premier League.

Van Nistelrooy, who took charge of the team in 2020, was unable to guide Leicester to a top-four finish in the league this season.

His sacking comes after a 1-0 defeat to rivals Manchester United, which left the team languishing in 10th place in the table.

Leicester City’s board of directors decided to part ways with the Dutch manager in a bid to turn their season around and salvage their European aspirations.

Van Nistelrooy’s tenure at the club was marred by inconsistency and a lack of tactical nous, which ultimately led to his departure.

The search for a new manager is already underway, with several names being thrown into the hat as potential candidates to take over the reins at the King Power Stadium.

Fans of the club have been left disappointed by the news, as many had hoped that Van Nistelrooy would lead Leicester to success on the domestic and European stage.

However, it seems that the board felt a change was necessary in order to achieve their goals and maintain their status as a top-flight club.

Leicester City will now look to appoint a new manager who can inspire the team to greater heights and bring success to the club.

Only time will tell whether this decision will prove to be the right one for the Foxes, but for now, the search for a new manager continues.
