Patrick Vieira could be handed an opportunity to return to Leeds United at the end of the season. The Daily Mail claim the Whites hierarchy think highly of the former Crystal Palace boss, despite his sacking last week.
It comes after TalkSPORT claimed the 46-year-old was on the shortlist to replace Jesse Marsch at Elland Road, one month prior to his own dismissal. Javi Gracia was the man tasked with keeping Leeds United in the Premier League but is only on a contract until the end of the season.
The Spaniard's stock would be high if he were to keep the Whites in the top tier, after a disappointing season to date. Just four points separate Vieira's former side Palace in 12th place and basement boys Southampton in 20th.
