Former Leeds United goalkeeper Paul Robinson has revealed that he heard a move for Andoni Iraola "was all done" before the Whites eventually brought Javi Gracia in as their new head coach.
Two weeks after Jesse Marsch was relieved of his duties at the club, Gracia was confirmed as Leeds' new manager. The former Watford boss will spearhead the charge away from the relegation zone at Elland Road over the remaining 15 games left in the season.
A host of names were linked with the top job at Leeds including the likes of Arne Slot, Alfred Schreuder and of course Iraola. And Robinson has now said that he was led to believe the club were certain over securing the services of the Rayo Vallecano manager after they let Marsch go.
