Premier League boss ‘set to leave’ after just six months with replacement lined up
Ruud van Nistelrooy is reportedly expected to leave Leicester, with Russell Martin primed to be appointed as the Foxes’ new manager. The relegated Premier league side are said to be set to agree a deal for former Southampton boss Martin to take over imminently.
Van Nistelrooy replaced Steve Cooper last December but has overseen a dreadful season that has ended in Leicester’s immediate return to the Championship. Despite a recent upturn in form that has seen them take seven points from their last three games, a horror run spanning December to April sealed their fate. Van Nistelrooy won his first game in charge, a 3-1 win over West Ham, and then drew with Brighton. Leicester then won only four points from their next 19 Premier League matches.
