Van Nistelrooy Reveals Amorim Discussions Before Man Utd Exit
Van Nistelrooy has however admitted he had been left “hurt” and “disappointed” after being shown the door by United.
The Dutchman was installed as interim manager after Erik ten Hag was sacked.
“The only job I would have taken as an assistant manager was at United because of the bond I have with the people in the club, and the fans.
“In the end I got my head round it because I also understand the new manager. I’m a manager myself. You can think of a situation, me being there… I understand.
“I spoke to Ruben about it, fair enough to him. I was grateful for the conversation: man to man, person to person, manager to manager.
That helped me a lot to move on and straightaway get into talks about new possibilities which of course lifted my spirits.”
