Ruud van Nistelrooy led Manchester United to a 3-0 victory over Leicester City on Sunday, capping off his final game as interim manager before Ruben Amorim's arrival. The Dutchman seems to have been able to stabilize the ship with three victories and a draw after Erik ten Hag was fired, and the Sporting Lisbon manager is formally scheduled to begin work on Monday.
When Amorim starts his new position on November 11, it is unknown to the public if Ruud Van Nistelrooy will continue to work for United in some manner. There might not be space for Van Nistelrooy to go back to an assistant position at Old Trafford as the Sporting CP manager is anticipated to bring part of his Portuguese employees. Fans of Manchester United undoubtedly expressed their opinions about the Dutchman's impact at the team and if they wanted him to stay.
Fans who had remained in their seats following the final whistle noisily sang Van Nistelrooy's name as he approached the Stretford End at Old Trafford following the victory over Leicester City, according to a video posted by the Manchester United fan page Ruud's Reds.

“Ruud van Nistelrooy fills the club” : Bruno Fernandes
Bruno Fernandes spoke to the media after the 3-0 win against Leicester City as he said, “It was a long time that I wasn’t scoring and now goals are coming in the last few games. Another clean sheet was important for us to bring back the fortress we had here. We have to keep doing that and we have to improve.
The former Sporting Lisbon midfielder said, “Ruud van Nistelrooy fills the club, he loves the club, he wants to bring joy to the players. He brought everyone with a smile to the games, he just wanted us to enjoy it. We wanted to say goodbye as a manager for him properly because he did good things for us. It’s a new era, a new manager means everything changes but what hasn’t changed is that this club has to get back to where it belongs."
