According to Van Nistelrooy, it is his responsibility to plan for the team's recruitment. He takes this task seriously and has been working on it for some time. He has evaluated the current squad and identified positions that need improvement.
Van Nistelrooy has been discussing transfer plans since February, particularly focusing on replacing Jamie Vardy, who left the team. He wants to involve the club's academy and develop homegrown players who can uphold the team's standards. Van Nistelrooy believes that this approach will help the team play with intensity, character, and passion.
Van Nistelrooy is clear about his goals, but he emphasizes that progress can only be made when there is alignment and clarity on the team's direction. Until then, he and his team will continue working towards a common goal.
