Most Leicester supporters had come to terms with the fact that they would not see Ruud van Nistelrooy on the sidelines next season, but only on Friday did the confirmation come. The Manchester United legend and super substitute at Old Trafford when Ten Hag was sacked in October, will not be joining the Championship.

It ended in relegation for Leicester, now the Dutchman has cleared his desk.
