Manchester United assistant coach Ruud van Nistelrooy revealed that the opportunity to return to Manchester United and work with Erik ten Hag was entirely unexpected.
In an interview with TNT Sports, Van Nistelrooy said: I had a strong feeling that I wanted to help Manchester United get back to where we feel and know the club should be, bit by bit. At that time, I was on the path to becoming a coach. I coached PSV Eindhoven, which was an incredible experience.
I was in talks with several clubs about coaching positions, and I really liked this job (coaching). I had my staff all prepared, then I received a call. I had never thought it was possible before. Ten Hag called me and discussed it in detail with me. I started to like the idea.
