Jesse Marsch has explained the Zoom call that made him realise why he wanted to become the next Leeds United manager. The American coach replaced Marcelo Bielsa in the hotseat at Elland Road last month following a poor run of results which had seen the Whites drop to 16th in the Premier League.
Having guided Red Bull Salzburg to two Austrian Bundesliga titles and two Austrian Cups, Marsch has accumulated a impressive record over the course of his managerial career. He has also previously coached Montreal Impact and New York Red Bulls in the MLS, where he was named as the Coach of the Year in 2015.
Marsch's final job before he joined Leeds was at RB Leipzig, replacing Julian Nagelsman in the dugout. Although he lasted just 21 games and six months, circumstances were difficult at Die Roten Bullen and the two parties mutually agreed to part ways in December.
