Leeds confirm Michael Skubala decision after caretaker boss took on Man Utd twice

Leeds caretaker boss Michael Skubala will continue to lead the team as a search for a permanent replacement continues, the club has confirmed.

The Whites took the decision to sack Jesse Marsch less than a year after hiring him following their defeat at Nottingham Forest earlier this month. Skubala took charge of the Premier League strugglers for their trip to Manchester United just three days later as they earned a surprise 2-2 draw.

Skubala was again in the dugout, assisted by Paco Gallardo and Chris Armas, for the game on Sunday, also against the Red Devils, which ended in a 2-0 defeat. Leeds have been knocked back by several names on their shortlist and have confirmed they will stick with Skubala, at least in the short term.
