The former Man Utd striker could rejoin the club in a coaching capacity, as he considers Old Trafford return.
You can almost hear the strains from the Stretford End now, the noises that sounded like boos but meant the complete opposite. Ruud.
The hope is that he will go with the red-tinted spectacles and rekindle his affinity with United. Van Nistelrooy departed from Old Trafford under a cloud in 2006 after a fall-out with Sir Alex Ferguson, but has retained his affection for the club despite that. His coaching CV is pretty impressive. Van Nistelrooy held positions with the Netherlands national side and in the PSV academy, before he became PSV boss outright.
The Dane enjoyed a promising debut season in trying circumstances at United, scoring 16 goals in all competitions , but he needs to reach the next level. To do that, he must become more clinical and get himself in better positions to latch onto crosses and passes. The likes of Alejandro Garnacho, Antony and Amad Diallo could all use Van Nistelrooy's expertise – and perspective as a former No.9 – to help them find Hojlund more often, and in more dangerous positions. He knows where strikers need the ball to bury it.
