Ruud van Nistelrooy admits he was “hurt” at having to leave Manchester United last month.
Van Nistelrooy returned to Old Trafford as Erik ten Hag’s assistant in the summer and had a four-game interim spell in charge following his compatriot’s sacking in October.
He left the club in the wake of Ruben Amorim’s appointment but was only out of work for two weeks after being appointed Leicester’s new manager on a deal until 2027.
The 48-year-old had a glittering playing career with United and was disappointed his return had to end so soon.
