Leeds are considering sacking Javi Gracia and appointing a third manager of the season after losing four of their last five games.
The club’s board are discussing the possibility of replacing Gracia, who was hired as Jesse Marsch’s successor on a “flexible contract” in February with the brief of maximising the team’s chances of avoiding relegation to the Championship. Leeds were in the bottom three at the time and Sunday’s 4-1 defeat at Bournemouth left them 16th, one point clear of those places going into daunting-looking games against Manchester City and Newcastle.
