Leeds are not set to appoint a permanent successor to Jesse Marsch until after playing Manchester United this weekend.
The Manchester Evening News understands a permanent appointment at Elland Road is instead due to be made next week, after Sunday's clash between Leeds and United, which is the second game between the two sides in a week.
Marsch was sacked on Monday afternoon and the club's Under-21 coach Michael Skubala has since taken caretaker charge.
