Daniel Farke is the leading candidate to land Leeds United’s head coach role, it would seem. The German head coach is the overwhelming favourite with the bookies and reports in Germany are suggesting an agreement could be in place between Farke and the Whites.
Such claims come towards the end of what has been a long and precise selection process over the last month to find the right man. Patrick Vieira was thought to be in the running but he is on the verge of joining Strasbourg now, while Scott Parker and Brenden Rodgers were options thought to have been considered.
Farke is well known to English football fans after spending four and a half years at the helm of Norwich City, where he won two promotions to the Premier League. The 46-year-old couldn’t keep the Canaries in the top flight, but he is still regarded favourably at Carrow Road for what he managed to do during his time at the club.
