The interim head coach leaves after leading United in four games as new manager Ruben Amorim arrives in Manchester.
Ruud van Nistelrooy’s spell with Manchester United has come to an end, the club has confirmed a day after the Dutchman led the team to a 3-0 Premier League victory over Leicester City in his fourth game as interim manager.
Van Nistelrooy’s departure was announced on Monday as Ruben Amorim arrived in Manchester as United’s permanent boss.
“Ruud is, and always will be, a Manchester United legend,” the club said in a statement.
“We are grateful for his contribution and the way in which he has approached his role throughout his time with the club. He will always be very welcome at Old Trafford.”
United assistants Rene Hake, Jelle ten Rouwelaar and Pieter Morel also left on Monday, with the Old Trafford club saying they would announce Amorim’s staff later.
