Leeds bosses are worried new manager Jesse Marsch will be inheriting a squad that is mentally and physically drained because of Marcelo Bielsa ruthless regime.
Former RB Leipzig and New York Red Bulls boss Marsch is poised to replace Bielsa at Elland Road and be charged with keeping the club in the Premier League.
Leeds chairman Andrea Radrizzani dismissed Bielsa following last weekend's 4-0 home defeat to Tottenham, which proved to be the final straw.
