Manchester United legend Ruud van Nistelrooy is reportedly on Leicester City’s shortlist as they look to replace outgoing manager Enzo Maresca.

Maresca is all set to become Chelsea’s new boss, replacing Mauricio Pochettino who departed Stamford Bridge last week ‘by mutual consent’.

The Blues will pay £10million in compensation for the Italian who guided the Foxes back to the top-flight this season via the Championship title.

There should be no lack of interest in the Leicester job even if there is a risk that the club will start on negative points after being charged by the Premier League for allegedly breaking Profitability and Sustainability Rules.
