Ruud van Nistelrooy has found one Premier League record that Jamie Vardy almost certainly won’t steal from him.

The newly-appointed Leicester City manager made history the second the Foxes kicked off their league win over West Ham at the King Power Stadium.

Goals from Jamie Vardy, Bilal El Khannouss and Patson Daka saw Van Nistelrooy get off to the ideal start for a side he’s already inflicted pain on this season.

Having already downed his new side twice during his interim spell at Manchester United, the Dutchman has become the first person to do so and then go on to manage them in the same season.

Unusual records aren’t new for Van Nistelrooy, who formerly held the longest streak for consecutive Premier League games scored in while at United.
