Leicester City, Ruud van Nistelrooy Part Ways After Relegation

Posted : 27 June 2025

Leicester City have announced the departure of manager Ruud van Nistelrooy by mutual agreement following the club’s relegation from the Premier League. The former Dutch striker joined the club in November when the team was positioned 16th, but despite an initial win in his first game in charge, he was unable to change the team’s fortunes.

 

Leicester ultimately finished 18th, returning to the Championship after a disappointing campaign that saw them end 13 points adrift of safety. Van Nistelrooy, widely regarded as one of the greatest forwards in Premier League history during his playing days, managed just five wins during his time at the helm.

 

Before taking over at Leicester, he enjoyed a successful stint as PSV Eindhoven’s head coach, winning the Dutch Cup, and later worked under Erik ten Hag at Manchester United, where he also served briefly as interim coach following Ten Hag's dismissal.

 

In a statement, Leicester City expressed gratitude for Van Nistelrooy’s efforts during a difficult period, acknowledging his professionalism and dedication.

 

 The 48-year-old also thanked the club’s players, staff, and supporters, stating he valued the experience despite the outcome. Until a new manager is appointed, Leicester’s first-team coaching staff will oversee pre-season preparations.
