West Bromwich Albion manager Carlos Corberan is the leading candidate to replace Jesse Marsch as the Leeds United head coach, according to 90min.
Leeds United want Carlos Corberan to replace Jesse Marsch
Leeds have announced that they have decided to sack Marsch as their manager following a run of poor results in the Premier League.
Leeds lost to Nottingham Forest in the Premier League at the weekend and are remain in real danger of getting relegated to the Championship at the end of the season.
90min have claimed that West Brom boss Corberan ‘is the frontrunner for the job at Elland Road, with Victor Orta being a keen admirer of the West Brom manager’s work’.
Corberan to Leeds?
It will be interesting to see if Leeds United are able to get Carlos Corberan from West Bromwich Albion.
Yes, Leeds sporting director Victor Orta would love the 39-year-old Spaniard at Elland Road, but would West Brom let him go in the middle of the season?
After all, the Baggies are in the Championship playoffs now, and they will surely want to keep hold of their manager.
It could come down to what Corberan wants.
The Spaniard worked as the Under-23 manager and as a first-team coach at Leeds and knows the club inside out.
Corberan worked under former Leeds head coach Marcelo Bielsa, and he has a very good playing style.
However, taking charge of Leeds now is a huge risk, but at the same time, we cannot deny that becoming the manager of one of the biggest clubs in England is an honour.
