- Ruud van Nistelrooy won final match as interim Man Utd manager on Sunday
- Red Devils ran out 3-0 winners over Leicester at Old Trafford
- Dutchman reveals the latest on his future before Ruben Amorim takes over
Manchester United interim manager Ruud van Nistelrooy expects to learn whether he will stay on under under new head coach Ruben Amorim in the next few days.
The legendary Dutch striker took over when Erik ten Hag's dismissal was confirmed at the end of October, with the Red Devils moving quickly to secure a deal for highly-rated Sporting CP boss Amorim.
Van Nistelrooy presided over four matches while Amorim concluded his business in Portugal, going unbeaten and finishing with a 3-0 victory over Leicester City on Sunday.
After the win, which saw United maintain their pre-match position of 13th in the Premier League, Van Nistelrooy spoke of his pride at managing his former club and reiterated his desire to stay on in a coaching capacity under the new regime.
He said: "I really enjoyed it, it's been a short but amazing period. We are in an uncertain position but we tried to do our jobs and help the club which is important.
"There are a lot of feelings there, the way the fans supported me and the team always in difficult moments, it was a special moment. To close down this block of games with good results and a good connection, I can't thank them enough. We will learn what the further plan is now."
Speaking in his post-match press conference, he added: "[The club hierarchy] said, 'okay, it's going to be four [games], it's going to be announced a new head coach' etc, etc. So, for me, it is important to have that clarity and I appreciated that. In the end, the most important thing is this football club, and I'm here to support that in my role.
"As I said, I want to continue doing that in the future and now also the communication was okay, [that] 'after the block of four games, there will be communication towards you and your colleagues that are in an uncertain situation'. So, I expect to hear today or tomorrow from them."
Amorim, who took charge of his final Sporting match on Sunday in a 4-2 comeback success over Braga, said he will soon discuss Van Nistelrooy's future with the former striker.
He revealed: "He is a legend of the club. He did a great job. I'll talk with him tomorrow. I'm very clear about what I want. Maybe we're not going to talk tomorrow, but you will for sure know in the coming weeks."
