"Head coach of the German Bundesliga? Mr. Chairman, this is a very sudden news for me." Van Nistelrooy's voice was full of surprise and excitement.

"I know this is very sudden, but I have thought it through. Moreover, I just talked to coach Mourinho, and he speaks highly of you." Rowley said.

"Coach Mourinho? What did he say?" Van Nistelrooy asked eagerly.

"He said that you are fully capable of coaching the first team. As an assistant coach beside him for a year, you have accumulated rich experience. Whether it is tactical arrangement, player training or on-the-spot adjustment, you have done very well. It's just that you have always lacked an opportunity to show yourself independently." Rowley conveyed Mourinho's words in detail.

"I am really touched to get such an evaluation from him. I have learned a lot from him, and I have always longed for such an opportunity." Van Nistelrooy said with emotion.

"Ruud, the Bundesliga is not as good as the top leagues such as the Premier League and La Liga, but it also has its own unique charm and competition. Holstein Kiel is a team with potential, and they need a capable coach like you to lead them to the Bundesliga." Luo Lie continued.

"I know that there are many excellent teams and players in the Bundesliga, and the competition is fierce. I also know Holstein Kiel, which is a club with a historical background." Van Nistelrooy responded.

"Yes, as the head coach of a strong team in the Bundesliga, this will be a very good starting point for you. You can fully display your coaching philosophy here and build a combat-ready team. You can tap the potential of the players according to your ideas. Whether it is young players or experienced veterans, they can play a greater value under your guidance." Luo Lie painted a bright prospect.

"Mr. Chairman, I am very excited. I have always dreamed of coaching a team independently and applying my understanding of football and tactics to actual games. In principle, I have no problem, but this is also a huge challenge for me, and I need to think about it carefully." Van Nistelrooy's tone was both expectant and hesitant.

"I understand that this is a big decision. But I believe you have the ability to cope with the challenge. Kiel Club will fully support you, whether in player transfers, training facilities or other aspects, will provide convenience for your coaching." Rowley tried to dispel Van Nistelrooy's concerns.

"Mr. Rowley, thank you for your trust. I need some time to think about it and discuss it with my family and friends. But in any case, I am very grateful for giving me this opportunity." Van Nistelrooy said gratefully.

"Of course, Mr. Mourinho and I are looking forward to you creating new glory in Holstein Kiel, and then one day in the future, you will return home to coach Manchester United." Rowley said with anticipation.

"Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Thank you, Mr. Mourinho." Van Nistelrooy said with some excitement.

Later that day, Rowe received a call from Van Nistelrooy, who agreed to serve as the head coach of the German Holstein Kiel Football Club.

After Van Nistelrooy readily agreed to serve as the head coach of the Holstein Kiel Club, Rowe showed a relieved smile on his face. He knew that this was a promising start, and the next thing he had to do was to inform the club's CEO Daniel Kramer of the good news.

Rowe sat on a comfortable sofa and called Daniel Kramer. Daniel Kramer's busy voice soon came from the other end of the phone: "Hello, Mr. Rowe, do you have any new news?"

"Kramer, it's me. I have a major decision to tell you." Rowe's tone was filled with uncontrollable excitement.

"Oh? What's the decision? Please tell me." Daniel Kramer's voice immediately rose a few points, and he could feel the importance of Rowe's words.

"You don't have to consider the plan of letting the reserve team coach Ole Werner temporarily replace the first team coach. I have found a very suitable candidate for the head coach." Rowe said.

"Really? Who is it?" Daniel Kramer asked eagerly.

"The current Manchester United first-team assistant coach Ruud van Nistelrooy, a man with extraordinary football insights and coaching potential." Luo Lie replied.

"Ruud van Nistelrooy? Are you talking about the famous football star, the king of the small penalty area? Is he willing to come to our Holstein Kiel?" Daniel Kramer's voice was full of surprise.

"Yes, after communication, he has agreed to serve as the head coach of our club." Luo Lie said with a smile.

"This is really great! Van Nistelrooy's ability and influence will undoubtedly bring new vitality and attention to the team." Daniel Kramer said excitedly.

"Also, Kramer, in order to support Coach Van Nistelrooy's coaching and for the better development of the club, I have decided to personally add 30 million pounds of funds." Rowley continued.

"30 million pounds? This is really a lot of money!" Daniel Kramer exclaimed.

"This fund will be mainly used to upgrade the club's facilities. Our training grounds, gyms, medical facilities, etc. need to be further improved so that we can provide players with a better training and rehabilitation environment and help them stay in the best condition." Rowley elaborated on the use of the funds in detail.

"This is a very wise decision. With better facilities, the training effect of the players will definitely be greatly improved." Daniel Kramer agreed.

"In addition, part of the funds will be used to recruit players. Coach Van Nistelrooy has his own coaching philosophy and tactical system. We must give him enough support so that he can introduce players who meet his tactical requirements and enhance the strength of the team." Rowley continued.

"Okay, Mr. Rowley, I will start to arrange the relevant matters immediately. We can discuss the direction and goals of the recruitment with Coach Van Nistelrooy and try to find the right players in the transfer market." Daniel Kramer has already started planning in his mind.

"Yes, you have to work closely with Van Nistelrooy. I believe that under his leadership, coupled with the support of these funds, the Kiel Club will be able to have an outstanding performance in the new season and move towards higher goals." Rowley said confidently.

"I am also looking forward to it. This change is a rare opportunity for our club. We must seize it well." Daniel Kramer responded.

"In addition, regarding the reserve team coach Ole Werner, please ask him for his opinion. If he agrees, he can join the Manchester United first team coaching staff as an assistant coach next season. Coach Van Nistelrooy will not stay in the position of head coach of Holstein Kiel Football Club for too long after studying well with Mr. Mourinho for a while." Rowley continued.

"I understand, Mr. Rowley." Daniel Kramer responded.

"Well, that's it for now. You should get ready as soon as possible. We will communicate again if there is any new situation." Luo Lie said.

"Okay, Mr. Luo Lie, goodbye." After Daniel Kramer hung up the phone, he immediately threw himself into work with full enthusiasm. He knew that Holstein Kiel Football Club was about to usher in a new era.

Shortly afterwards, the German Holstein Kiel Football Club issued an announcement on its official website and social media:

"Dear family members and fans of the Kiel Club:

We are extremely excited to announce a major news to everyone. Holstein Kiel Football Club has ushered in a new leader. Former Manchester United Club first-team assistant coach and Dutch legendary striker Ruud van Nistelrooy will serve as the head coach of our first team. The two sides have officially signed a three-year contract.

Ruud van Nistelrooy has an extremely brilliant player career and is recognized as the "king of the penalty area". He has played for Den Bosch, Heerenveen, PSV Eindhoven, Manchester United, Real Madrid, Hamburg, Malaga and other clubs. He has won 2 Eredivisie titles, 1 Premier League title, and 2 La Liga titles. He has won seven Golden Boot Awards in the Eredivisie, Premier League, La Liga, and UEFA Champions League, and was named the world's best scorer in the first 10 years of the 21st century by the International Association of Football History and Statistics.

Since 2014 After starting his coaching career in 2005, Ruud van Nistelrooy served as assistant coach of the Dutch national team and contributed his wisdom to the development of Dutch football. In PSV Eindhoven, he served as head coach of the U17, U19 and reserve teams, carefully trained young players, and passed on his football philosophy and skills to the next generation without reservation. During his time as an assistant coach at Manchester United, he assisted the first-team head coach Mourinho, participated in tactical formulation, player training and other work, accumulated rich coaching experience, and was an important member of the coaching team that led Manchester United to win the "Quadruple Crown" last season.

We believe that the arrival of Ruud van Nistelrooy will inject new vitality and strength into Holstein Kiel Football Club and lead the team to achieve even better results in the future journey. Let us look forward to his performance in the new season together! "

Then, Manchester United's officialThe official account also announced the news of Ruud van Nistelrooy's departure. Manchester United's announcement read: "Manchester United can confirm that Ruud van Nistelrooy has left the club. Ruud returned last summer, and in the past year we have achieved the unprecedented "Quadruple Crown" achievement together. Ruud is, and will always be, a Manchester United legend. We thank him for his contribution to the club and the way he has handled his role during his tenure. He will always be warmly welcomed at Old Trafford. I wish him all the best in the future."

Manchester United fans also sent their blessings to Van Nistelrooy, but unlike the previous life, which was full of regrets, Manchester United fans in this life only have blessings and expectations for Van Nistelrooy's temporary departure, because the hardcore Red Devils all know that Holstein Kiel Football Club was purchased by club chairman Rowley last year and is one of Manchester United's several satellite clubs.
