Ruud van Nistelrooy has previously made his feelings on the Manchester United manager's job clear after the interview of his countryman Erik ten Hag on Monday.
Manchester Evening News revealed last week that Ten Hag has been interviewed for the vacant permanent managerial position. Ralf Rangnick is currently in charge at Old Trafford on a temporary basis but United are looking for their next permanent boss.
Last week, MEN Sport reported that the Ajax boss is United's preferred candidate for the role as they look to rebuild following the sacking of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer in November. Since then rumours have suggested that the club would be looking for a former player to takeover as Ten Hag's number two.
