Manchester United’s summer rebuild under Ruben Amorim is beginning to take shape, but it’s not just Old Trafford that’s bracing for change.
United are involved in a make-or-break game tonight as their season will be decided against Tottenham Hotspur in the Europa League final.
With INEOS reshaping the club’s sporting structure and backroom staff, there has been growing speculation about former United players returning in coaching or development roles.

Fans have called for experienced ex-Reds to help guide the new era.
Now, a sudden twist in one of United’s former managers current job situation has placed him directly in the spotlight.
Ruud van Nistelrooy is set to leave Leicester City after growing frustration with the club’s silence and ongoing uncertainty surrounding their Championship campaign.
Ruud Van Nistelrooy had been actively preparing for life in the second tier, but with Leicester nearing a deal to appoint Russell Martin as manager, the Dutchman’s future at the club has all but collapsed.
According to Mail Sport, talks with Martin — who took Southampton up via the play-offs in 2024 — have continued this week and are close to being finalised.

Van Nistelrooy, who was never officially confirmed as permanent boss, now appears set to walk away after being kept in limbo for weeks by a hierarchy embroiled in financial complications.
Leicester were charged by the Premier League for breaching financial rules, and the club’s referral to an independent commission has only deepened the turmoil.
Despite being invested in planning for the season ahead, Van Nistelrooy was met with silence, a situation he reportedly found both “uncertain and disrespectful.”
It’s a disappointing turn of events for a manager once tipped to take a Premier League role.
With Amorim and INEOS looking to inject leadership into Manchester United’s evolving set-up, Van Nistelrooy’s experience and status could yet see him return home — if not now, then certainly in the near future.
For now, he exits another storm — but the next chapter could lead him back to where he became a legend.
