Leeds man reportedly on the verge of signing new Elland Road deal amidst Spurs links – originally posted on Sportslens.com
Leeds United head coach Marcelo Bielsa is on the verge of agreeing a new deal at Elland Road, according to The Telegraph.
The Argentine’s current contract ends at the end of the season, and he has been linked with succeeding Jose Mourinho at Tottenham Hotspur.
However, the latest reports will end fears that the Leeds boss could walk away once his contract ends.
The 65-year-old has signed a one-year ahead of every season since joining the Yorkshire giants in the summer of 2018, and he is now expected to do so once the campaign ends.
Tottenham would have to strike Bielsa off their target list from the look of things, and Leeds fans will be delighted with the latest development.
The Argentine is pleased with how things have gone this term and since he joined Leeds, and he is looking forward to leading them to Europe.
Bielsa has been in constant talks with the board and owner Andrea Radrizzani and plans for next season are being discussed.
Leeds are looking to finish in the top half of the Premier League table after what has been an impressive campaign, and breaking into the top-six is likely to be the mission for next season.
