German manager agrees deal to take over at Elland RoadLeeds waiting for EFL ratification of American takeover
Daniel Farke is expected to become Leeds United’s new manager and hopes to be installed in time for the Championship squad’s return to training on Monday.
Farke, who twice led Norwich into the Premier League, was on a shortlist for the Elland Road post along with Patrick Vieira and Scott Parker. Although Vieira interviewed strongly and appeared the favourite for a time, the former Crystal Palace manager now seems set to return to his native France and take charge at Strasbourg.
