The three went for a meal at the Italian eatery La Famiglia.
United’s upheaval at Old Trafford has continued since the arrival of minority owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe.
And Hake and Van Nistelrooy are two of the newest recruits to the Manchester giants’ backroom staff, as confirmed by the club earlier today.
The Dutch trio will be trying to build on Manchester United’s FA Cup victory last season by combining their footballing experience.
The football geniuses went out for supper before their country’s Euro 2024 semi-final match against England, arriving just in time for kickoff.
Unfortunately, the three coaches will not have had much time to appreciate the football as they saw the Dutch exit the competition.
Xavi Simons’ early goal for the Netherlands was cancelled out by a first-half Harry Kane penalty.
Before super sub Ollie Watkins made his little cameo count by scoring a spectacular 90th-minute winner to secure the Three Lions’ place in Sunday’s Euro 2024 final against Spain.

Manchester United players and staff have already returned to pre-season training, with stars such as Harry Maguire, Mason Mount, and Casemiro returning following the break on Monday.
The addition of coaches is not the only change that has occurred at United this summer.
Executives have also arrived to lead the club in a new direction.
Dan Ashworth, the former Newcastle manager, finally arrived in Manchester as the club’s new sporting director this month.
Ashworth is expected to oversee football performance, recruitment, and operations at Manchester United.
New technical director Jason Wilcox, who joined the 20-time Premier League champions in April, will report to Ashworth.
Ratcliffe’s new style includes more than just the two new faces.
Former Manchester City chief executive Omar Berrada is scheduled to join the club later this month.
