“EXCLUSIVE: The Real Reason Leicester Won’t Sack Van Nistelrooy REVEALED. You won’t believe what’s behind it
Ruud van Nistelrooy is struggling at Leicester City, isn’t he? While the Blue Army initially welcomed him, a growing number of fans are now turning against the Dutchman.
Leicester have already dismissed one manager this season—former Nottingham Forest boss Steve Cooper didn’t last long, and I actually thought he’d be let go in the summer.
My joking tone reflects my belief that Cooper wasn’t the right choice from the start.
Although van Nistelrooy seemed like an exciting option at first, most people acknowledged his inexperience.
Still, at the time, there didn’t seem to be a better or more fitting candidate available, according to various reports about Leicester’s managerial search.
Now, many LCFC supporters are calling for the former Manchester United striker to be dismissed.
However, their wishes may not be granted anytime soon—or possibly ever. The reason Leicester City is unlikely to sack van Nistelrooy, as reported by The Telegraph in November 2024, might be financial.
The club is dealing with significant issues around profit and sustainability, which have left them with limited funding, despite the manager’s earlier promises of reinforcements.
Leicester’s chairman, Aiyawatt Srivaddhanaprabha, or “Top,” has reportedly told the squad that there’s no money to fire another manager, especially given the club’s financial struggles and the need to comply with the Premier League’s profitability and sustainability rules.
As The Telegraph reported, “He [Top] is also understood to have mentioned the club’s finances. Paying off another manager will put a strain on the club’s already difficult financial situation and its compliance with the Premier League’s profitability and sustainability rules (PSR).”
