Leeds United supporters have rallied behind the club's announcement that Javi Gracia has now become their new head coach.
Leeds confirmed on Tuesday afternoon that they had agreed terms with Gracia to become their new manager following Jesse Marsch's dismissal more than a fortnight ago. The 52-year-old has signed on a "flexible contract" and the club hope that he will be in the dugout for their vital Premier League clash with Southampton at Elland Road on Saturday afternoon.
A whole host of names had been linked with the top job at Leeds after Marsch departed over two weeks ago, but fans finally have someone to get behind for the final 15 games of the season. Gracia takes over with his new squad just one point above the Saints, as the Whites sit 19th in the table following their 1-0 defeat to Everton last weekend.
