    Article title says “Ruud van Nistelrooy **signs** two-year contract with Manchester United as first assistant to Erik ten Hag” although in the following line it says ‘**traveled & will sig**n in the coming days’

    Also from the article:

    – Ruud van Nistelrooy has traveled to England, where he will sign a two-year contract with Manchester United in the coming days.

    – The former PSV coach will be first assistant to head coach Erik ten Hag. The first training of the new season is at United on Monday. **Van Nistelrooy is still awaiting a work permit.**

    – The Brabander consciously chooses this job. **In recent months he also spoke with Burnley, Club Brugge and several clubs in Germany and Spain.** That was all for the position of head coach.

    – The expectation is that a few of the current staff members will take a step back. In the past two years, Steve McClaren and Mitchell van der Gaag were two of Ten Hag’s closest assistants.

  2. Got a feeling he’s the next United manager…. After Erik wins 3 trebles on the bounce GGMU

  3. Can someone explain to me how it’ll work if Ten Hag has club appointed assistant instead of his own?

    I mean if we are going to bring back Dutch players can Jaap come train up the back line too? Maybe Van der Sar as well.
