The team's relegation to the Championship was confirmed after a 1-0 loss to Liverpool on Sunday. It is unclear whether van Nistelrooy will remain at the King Power Stadium to try and lead the team back to the Premier League.

In a press conference after the match, van Nistelrooy urged the club to stop wasting time and have a clear conversation about his future. He believes that the team's recent performances, such as the losses to Brighton and Liverpool, can be used to inform this discussion.

Van Nistelrooy emphasized that it is still important to discuss the team's future, even after relegation. He believes that the players are showing that they are committed to improving, and that the club should take this opportunity to have a careful and thoughtful discussion about the team's direction.

When asked if talks have started, van Nistelrooy replied that they have not yet begun. He expressed his hope that discussions will start soon and that it is an important matter to address.
