Leeds Utd earmark ex-RB Leipzig coach Marsch to replace Bielsa

Leeds United have earmarked RB Leipzig coach Jesse Marsch as a potential replacement for Marcelo Bielsa.

Argentine coach Bielsa is entering the final months of his contract at Elland Road.

And should the beloved manager walk away, the Daily Mail says Marsch is an option for the Leeds hierarchy.

The American was most recently sacked by Bundesliga club RB Leipzig.

Prior to his move to Germany, Marsch enjoyed success with Leipzig's sister club, RB Salzburg.

There are similarities from Marsch to Bielsa's style, with his teams also playing with aggression and intensity.
