Leeds will be extremely busy in the transfer market this summer as they prepare for their life in the Premier League. And despite winning the championship with 100 points, one business allows manager Daniel Fark to leave the club.
Reports over the past few weeks say Leeds can say goodbye to Fark because of concerns about his record as a Premier League manager. For now, he is still on Elland Road, but things could change over the summer.
Former Southampton manager Russell Martin is thought to be interested in replacing Fark, and now a new name is in the frame. It could cause excitement among Leeds supporters.
Raul Gonzalez Blanco is linked to Leeds management positions
As reported by Diario (via Football365), Real Madrid icon Raul Gonzalez is on Leeds radar as a management option. The 47-year-old has been in charge of the club’s B-team since 2019, but has already been decided to leave the post at the end of the season as his contract has not been extended.
Raul has been linked to many managers in recent years, especially Schalke 04. But the opportunity to manage is definitely something he enjoys given the club’s height.
However, since Leeds has no experience managing the club in top flight competitions, going to Raul as an alternative to Raul can be a risk. So it may be wise to consider other options to make changes before the start of the 2025-26 season, which will begin in August.
