Andoni Iraola says he was always committed to Rayo Vallecano despite being heavily linked with the managerial vacancy at Leeds United in February.
Iraola was one of the early frontrunners for the Leeds job after Jesse Marsch was relieved of his duties at Elland Road. However, Rayo blocked Leeds' approach, the Whites board and had to look elsewhere for a new manager.
His name partially remained in the running but Leeds ultimately settled on Javi Gracia after a long and arduous search for Marsch's successor.
