The ex-Manchester United player and coach was unable to change the Foxes’ fortunes, as club get relegated from Premier League
Leicester head coach Ruud van Nistelrooy has revealed that he will hold talks with the club hierarchy over his future.
Leicester’s relegation from the Premier League was confirmed on Sunday after their 1-0 loss at home to champions-elect Liverpool. The Foxes have won only once in their last 18 league games and lost all of the last 10.
Van Nistelrooy was appointed in November to turn around the fortunes of the club, but he has won just two of his 20 league games in charge.
Speaking to reporters about his future after the defeat to Liverpool, the Dutchman said, “I’m working in the coming weeks, it’s my job to do everything in the interest of Leicester City Football Club.
“And that’s what I’m doing with young talent joining the first-team training, second appearance of Monga in the Premier League at 15 years old, a lot of young players starting and playing excellent games and it’s all a benefit for their development into next season and that’s my job for now.
“Of course, I’m waiting on the clarity of the club, how they want to continue.”
Asked if he wants to lead the club back to the Premier League, van Nistelrooy replied, “It’s what I’m doing now. It’s what I’m doing and it’s the goal to lead the club in the best way possible.
“But of course I have to wait on how the club sees things and then take it from there. I’m doing my job with the responsibility to do the best for the football club for now until the end of the season.
“I’m waiting on the direction the club wants to go and see if we can get aligned on that.”
