Jesse Marsch has insisted that Chris Armas will help Leeds United "improve every day" as the club's new assistant head coach, while director of football Victor Orta is convinced that the American duo are a "perfect fit".
Leeds confirmed on Wednesday afternoon that Armas has been appointed as their new assistant head coach at the club. The 50-year-old served as Marsch's assistant from 2015 to 2018 at MLS side New York Red Bulls prior to the Whites' manager going on to take charge of RB Leipzig.
The fellow American comes with Premier League experience as well, having worked under Ralf Rangnick during the German's short stint at Manchester United last season. The club hopes that Armas will be on the touchline this Saturday for the FA Cup fourth round tie with Accrington Stanley and Marsch for one cannot wait to team up with him once again.
