Assistant to Erik ten Hag at Manchester United, Ruud van Nistelrooy (48 years old) held the role of interim coach until the arrival of Ruben Amorim.
Fired, the Dutchman, whom the Portuguese did not wish to integrate into his staff, left the residents of Old Trafford a few days ago. But we could see him again very quickly on a bench.
Indeed, The Sun reveals that the former Real Madrid striker, who chained 3 wins and 1 draw during his interim at Manchester United, caught the eye of Burnley.
The Clarets appreciate his profile and have been following him since his time on the bench of PSV Eindhoven. Even if a departure of Scott Parker is not on the agenda, Burnley (Championship) has the name of Van Nistelrooy in mind in case of a change in the future.
