Leeds United could make a move to install Steven Gerrard as their new boss after a number of rejections.
The former Rangers and Aston Villa manager would link up with Elland Road favourite Gary McAllister, a member of the 1992 Championship winning side under Howard Wilkinson.
The McAllister factor has been discussed by the Leeds hierarchy, desperate to avoid another scramble to avoid relegation from the Premier League. Both Gerrard and McAllister were in the frame before the club went for Marcelo Bielsa.
