Ruud van Nistelrooy named as Netherlands assistant coach

By , Senior Reporter
Former Manchester United striker Ruud van Nistelrooy will work alongside Guus Hiddink and Danny Blind as assistant coach for the Netherlands.

Former Manchester United striker Ruud van Nistelrooy has joined the Netherlands' backroom staff ahead of their Euro 2016 qualifying campaign.

The World Cup semi-finalists have replaced Louis van Gaal with Guus Hiddink, and the former Chelsea boss had already brought in Danny Blind to assist him with the national team.

With just five weeks to go until the start of the Euro 2016 fixtures, Hiddink has now introduced Van Nistelrooy to work alongside Blind.

The role represents the 38-year-old's first move into coaching after his retirement in 2012.
