Leicester have already been relegated to the Championship, so the remaining games this season will be about preserving some glory and preparing for a return to the Premier League as quickly as possible.
Dutch Manchester United and Real Madrid legend Ruud Van Nistelrooy took over for Steve Cooper last year and basically has a contract that lasts until the summer of 2027. The mission was to keep Leicester, who were already struggling in the league. When that didn’t happen, it’s natural to have a chat.

According to Sky Sports, van Nistelrooy will meet Leicester’s sporting management this week to discuss his future. At the same time, Leicester reportedly have a list of potential replacements, including Lee Carsley, Danny Röhl and Russell Martin.
An important point to be clarified before the meeting is what club legend and captain Jamie Vardy thinks about the future. – The 38-year-old has apologized for the team and his own efforts after the relegation became a fact, without at the same time pointing to manager Ruud Van Nistelrooy.
The latest from King Power is that Jamie Vardy has decided to stay and fight Leicester back to the Premeier League before he retires and who many want to take on a coaching role at the club. This was Jamie Vardy’s apology to fans:
At this point, I don’t even know what to say. No words can express my feelings of anger and sadness over how this season has unfolded. There are no excuses.
As players and as a club, we have failed. There is no way around it, and I will not listen to anyone who tries to blame anything else.
After so many years at this club, we have experienced so many highlights and successes – but this season has been miserable, and for me personally a total shame. It hurts, and I know you feel the same.
To the fans: I’m sorry. Sorry we haven’t performed, and sorry that we end the 2025 season with such a show.
