Leicester part company with manager Van Nistelrooy

Leicester City Football Club has announced that they have parted ways with their manager Ruud van Nistelrooy.

The decision comes after a series of poor results and performances under Van Nistelrooy’s leadership.

The club released a statement thanking Van Nistelrooy for his efforts but stating that a change was needed to improve the team’s fortunes.

Assistant coach John Smith will take over as interim manager while the club searches for a permanent replacement.

Fans have expressed mixed reactions to the news, with some calling for a more experienced manager to be appointed.

Van Nistelrooy had only been in charge for a year and leaves with the team struggling near the bottom of the table.

The board of directors will now begin the process of finding a new manager to lead the team forward.

Speculation has already begun on who the club might look to hire as their next manager.

Leicester City will be hoping that a change in leadership will bring about a change in fortunes for the team.

It remains to be seen what the future holds for Van Nistelrooy and whether he will return to management elsewhere.
