Chris Armas is in line for an awkward return to Manchester United after Leeds sacked colleague Jesse Marsch but left him in place.
Leeds face the Red Devils in back-to-back Premier League fixtures this week. Armas was omitted from a club statement which confirmed Marsch's departure and who'd be following him out the door, so the Red Devils' former assistant manager will be in the Old Trafford dugout this Wednesday.
Ex-team-mate and good friend Marsch was dismissed by Leeds on Monday, only two weeks after welcoming Armas into his backroom staff in what he believed to be a vote of confidence from the Elland Road board. While Leeds' hierarchy are busy drawing up a list of candidates to replace Marsch, Armas is set to assist under-21s boss and former England Futsal manager Michael Skubala at Old Trafford for the first of two upcoming clashes between the old rivals.
