Daniel Farke's Leeds United pitch anchored on dressing room warning and three key tenets

Hard work, honesty and joy are likely to have been key factors Daniel Farke raised in his job interview to become Leeds United’s next head coach. The Gerrman is widely expected to be confirmed as the club’s new boss after impressing through an interview process which concluded in London last week.

Chairman-elect Paraag Marathe led the process alongside chief executive Angus Kinnear, with assistance from the likes of director Peter Lowy and San Francisco 49ers supremo Jed York. After the in-person interviews in the capital, Farke emerged as the preferred candidate and it has been a waiting game since then.

While the club waits to make its announcement, it’s been possible to pick back through Farke’s past interviews to get a gauge of the coach and how he is likely to have sold himself to Marathe. Before Russia’s invasion of Ukraine ended his tenure prematurely, the 46-year-old spoke to Krasnodar’s channels about his philosophy in January last year.
