Manchester United have announced Ruud van Nistelrooy has left the club after not being given a role in new manager Ruben Amorim’s backroom staff.
The 48-year-old took charge of the club on interim basis last month following the sacking of Erik ten Hag.
Van Nistelrooy managed three victories and a draw in his four games during his time as caretaker boss.
“Ruud is, and always will be, a Manchester United legend,” the club said in a statement which confirmed Van Nistelrooy’s exit.
“We are grateful for his contribution and the way in which he has approached his role throughout his time with the club. He will always be very welcome at Old Trafford.”
United confirmed that fellow coaches Rene Hake, Jelle ten Rouwelaar and Pieter Morel have also left the club.
