Manchester United need to get their dismal Europa League back on track when they face PAOK at Old Trafford on Thursday after three draws in as many games before.The Red Devils are languishing in 21st

In 2022, Van Nistelrooy, 48, got his first crack at coaching a senior team leading PSV following Roger Schmidt's departure. While he signed a three-year contract and began winning the 2022 Johan Cryuff Shield and 2022-23 KNVB Cup, Van Nistelrooy resigned with one match left in the season due to lack of support from management.

Having rejoined United last summer to assist Ten Hag, Van Nistelrooy remains open to extending his involvement under the new management. One of his decisive moves as interim was the selection of £42 million Uruguayan midfielder Manuel Ugarte against Leicester, a player sparingly used under Ten Hag.

Ruud van Nistelrooy always promised goals for Manchester United. There were 36 in his first season as a player, 44 in his second. There were seven in his first game as their interim manager, five of them for United.
