Leeds United boss Marcelo Bielsa was wearing his club jacket.
Leeds United boss Marcelo Bielsa invited his old boss to visit him in Yorkshire.
Former Chile FA chief Harold Mayne-Nicholls shared a photo alongside Bielsa, who was wearing his Leeds United jacket.
The tweet read: “This morning pleasant walk-about 2 hrs-and conversation, with Marcelo Bielsa on the banks of the River Aire in Leeds. In the afternoon, he showed me the training facilities and academy @LUFC.”
Mayne-Nicholls hired Bielsa to manage the Chile national team, and he led them to the 2010 World Cup, where the team won plaudits for their performances and unique tactical approach.
Bielsa’s legacy in Chile is remembered well, with his side laying the groundwork for their subsequent Copa America wins in 2015 and 2016.
The manager is clearly proud of his work at Leeds United, as demonstrated by both his decisions to invite an old pal over, and to wear his club merchandise too.
Bielsa’s Leeds sit top of the Championship as the league approaches the midway point of the season.
