Rayo Vallecano Sporting Director David Cobeno has confirmed that Andoni Iraola turned down a move to Leeds United. The Whites were willing to match the release clause in the Basque manager's contract, but he's made the decision to stay with the La Liga club.
Speaking to RadioMarca Cobeno said: “Andoni has a clause, like the majority of the employees of the club, in terms of footballers and coaches. From that point, we refer [teams] to the clause.
“From there, the decision of Andoni was clear, and he has given us his word until the end of the season. Sometimes a person’s word weighs more than money, and Andoni has shown as much.”
