Leeds United boss Marcelo Bielsa’s future is unclear.
Marcelo Bielsa said this week he would discuss his future at Leeds United at the end of the season, the Yorkshire Evening Post report.
Leeds fans are worried he could walk away if the club do not win promotion to the Premier League.
Even if there is a near miss, Bielsa would leave Leeds with his reputation enhanced.
Argentine giants Boca Juniors have been urged to pursue him.
Former Boca star Vicente Pernia made 238 appearances for the club and starred for Argentina.
He told El Intransigente that he believes Boca’s current coach Gustavo Alfaro is under qualified for the job and wants Bielsa to take charge.
He said: “Boca need a manager that when he speaks the rest do not say anything, that if he comes to train from tomorrow at six in the morning, nobody says anything. And the one who says something, can not play at Boca.
“That’s the personality of the coach that is needed, that coach today is Bielsa, where no one of the squad is going to say anything because he knows he does not play.”
Bielsa has commanded instant respect at Leeds and that has helped him turn the side around from mid-table stragglers into promotion contender.
If he does walk away from Leeds, it won’t be long until he is inundated with offers.
