Leeds United boss Jesse Marsch 'learning about Yorkshire identity' as he reveals recent day-trips

Leeds United manager Jesse Marsch has revealed he is trying to embrace living in Yorkshire by visiting some of the most popular tourist destinations in the area. In a recent interview, Marsch commented that: "I've been to York, Harrogate, Knaresborough, Leeds, and on my days off I have tried to get around the whole area and learn about the people here."

Marsch, who hails from Wisconsin in America, was appointed as Leeds boss in February, and has since attempted to immerse himself in the culture of Yorkshire: "I'm all about experiences in life, so coming here to Leeds United, I'm learning more and more about the about the identity of Yorkshire and what the people are like. I can only say that I am loving it. The people have been fantastic and everyone has been positive."

The Elland Road faithful have certainly taken well to Marsch, whose arrival has seen an upturn in form for the Whites. He has guided Leeds to three wins in their last four games, which has massively helped their survival bid.
