Yesterday, the eccentric Hamburger SV manager Steffen Baumgart was fired, before it was the 2.Bundesliga club in contact with Ruud van Nistelrooy to plumb his interest in taking over as manager.

Hamburger Sv aims to get back to the Bundesliga this season, but as the points came slower than desired, they looked around for someone who can do it. Ruud van Nistelrooy played for Hamburger SV in the 2011/2012 season.

But it probably won’t be Ruud van Nistelrooy who wants to stay in England after he was sacked by Manchester United despite impressive performances as a midfield manager. Lately, he has been linked with both Burnley and Coventry in the Championship. – Now, according to Sky Sports, he is one of two leading candidates to take over at Leicester after they sacked Steve Cooper.

It is his short time in charge at Manchester United that should have impressed them all. – The other candidate is the former Chelsea, Brighton and Östersund manager Graham Potter.

Leicester are currently 16th in the Premier League.
