British media ‘Sports Bible’ reported on the 3rd (Korea Standard Time) that “Lute van Nistelrooy jokingly revealed the problem with Jamie Vardy at Leicester City’s first press conference.”
Manchester United confirmed on the club’s website on the 12th (Korea time), “Manchester United confirmed that coach Ruud van Nistelrooy has left the team. Van Nistelrooy rejoined in the summer and led the team as interim manager for the past four games.”
Van Nistelrooy then replaced Steve Cooper last week as Leicester City manager until 2027. After PSV, Van Nistelrooy became the second official manager in his career as Leicester City manager.
On Monday, Van Nistelrooy held his first press conference as Leicester manager and was asked about Leicester City legend Vardy, who broke his Premier League record of nine years. During Leicester’s winning season, Vardy became the first player to score in 11 consecutive league games, breaking Van Nistelrooy’s record.
And 토토사이트 꽁머니 Van Nistelrooy revealed his conversation with Vardy, joking that there was a problem with Vardy’s record. “Of course it’s a problem that he broke my record. I told him straight away, ‘I’ve got a big problem to deal with before we start together,'” Van Nistelrooy said.
He continued, “I feel like I beat him. Of course, at the time, I broke the record and tweeted that I wished him well, but now nine years later, it felt really strange.”
Speaking at his first press conference since Leicester’s inauguration, Van Nisteloui said he was surprised by the interest in him after his brief spell as manager of Manchester United. “I have to say there were offers and possibilities there. It’s good to have those offers and carefully consider where to work,” Van Nijs said.
He continued, “After the game, a lot of people showed interest, and I was a little surprised that there was an option for me all of a sudden. I went into a conversation with Leicester because I thought it was a good opportunity to get to know each other while talking with Leicester. It was a good feeling and in the end, both sides felt that way. That was a good reason to start working together.”
Van Nistelrooy’s first match will be against West Ham at home on Wednesday. Van Nijs hopes to boost the mood by winning the first match.
