'No talks' yet on Van Nistelrooy future

Leicester were beaten by Bournemouth in their final game of the 2024-25 Premier League season on Sunday

Leicester manager Ruud van Nistelrooy says he has not yet had any talks with the club about his future but that they "need to happen".

The Dutchman signed a contract until June 2027 and is understood to want to remain in charge of the Foxes, but reports say former Southampton boss Russell Martin is a contender to take his job.

Already relegated Leicester bowed out of the Premier League on Sunday with a 2-0 defeat at Bournemouth.

The Leicester boss said he "hopes to speak" with the club about his future following relegation to the Championship.

"I would like to talk and that's the first thing that needs to happen," he told BBC Match of the Day.

"It's been silent and it's something towards the end of the season, get things done with and then I expect to hear something."

Leicester finished the season in 18th place, 13 points adrift of safety, and were relegated in April.

He added: "It's important to start talking and to see how we look into the future. It's what you need to find out. So far there hasn't been any conversation but I'm waiting for that to happen."
