Leeds United's managerial search heads into it's third week following the departure of Sam Allardyce and former Crystal Palace boss Patrick Vieira is the latest name linked with the Elland Road hot seat. The Whites are still waiting for official EFL confirmation of sale by Andrea Radrizzani to 49ers Enterprises which is likely to have delayed any appointment.
The club said a managerial decision would come in the following weeks but the Whites are due to begin pre-season at the start of July and they will have just one month to get ready for the opening game of the season. It'll be a quick turnaround for any incoming manager but it still leaves them with time to implement fresh ideas.
Vieira was hailed for breathing new life into Crystal Palace, but lost his job following an 11-game winless run at the start of 2023. The former Arsenal midfielder was linked with a move to Elland Road following Jesse Marsch's departure but the Whites' hierarchy turned to Javi Gracia in their hour of need.
