Ruud van Nistelui will be replaced by Leicester City.

British talk sports will replace coach Van Nistelrooy after July 1 on the 22nd (Korea time). Leicester have already replaced Steve Cooper to recruit Van Nistelrooy, so they want to avoid having two managers replaced in the same season, the report said.

Leicester returned to the Premier League (EPL) ahead of the 2024-2025 season. Cooper was appointed to regain his reputation in the EPL. However, Cooper failed to take control of the squad, and Leicester hovered near the relegation zone.

In the end, Leicester concluded in November last year that a change was needed, and brought in Van Nistelui, who showed good performance as Manchester United's interim manager. Van Nisteloui, who signed a two-and-a-half-year contract, has been given special orders to rescue Leicester from relegation.




Van Nistelui did his job in the opposite direction. After Van Nisteloui took the helm of Leicester, the team fell further into the hole. Under Van Nistelrooy, Leicester played 27 games and won just three. There have been 19 defeats. It was only two times in league history that the league has won eight consecutive home games. The eight-game losing streak was the first in league history. Van Nistelrooy's Leicester sank and the result was relegation.

But Van Nistelrooy "What I want to say is that it's very disappointing. Personally speaking, I came here with the intention of developing the club, but so far it hasn't worked. I've tried various things, tried different players, different rescues, but I didn't get the results. That's all I can sayIt was also controversial when he said Leicester's fall was not his problem.

Van Nistelu would have had nothing to say if he had been replaced immediately after Leicester's relegation was confirmed, but Leicester could not immediately release Van Nisteluyi due to financial difficulties. This is because Van Nistelui needs to be replaced after July 1, so that the replacement penalty will be recorded in the books for the 2025-2026 season. If you dismiss it before June 30, the penalty will be written in the books for the 2024-2025 season.




As a result, if you violate profitability and sustainability (PSR) regulations, there is a risk of severe punishment such as points reduction. In fact, Leicester has no choice but to judge more carefully because it has been on the verge of points cuts due to PSR violations.

As a legendary soccer player, Van Nistelu, who was a teammate of Park Ji-sung when he was at Manchester United and loved as a mentor to Son Heung-min when he was in Hamburg, is going downhill as a leader.
