Leeds United fans are eager to see Pep Clotet brought back to help out Thomas Christiansen.

Oxford United manager Pep Clotet looks on prior to the Sky Bet League One match between Milton Keynes Dons and Oxford United at StadiumMK on September 2, 2017 in Milton Keynes, England.

Leeds United fans want Pep Clotet brought back to Elland Road, after his sacking at Oxford United.

Clotet left Leeds last summer, following the departure of Garry Monk.

The Spanish boss’s departure was far from as acrimonious as Monk’s and he remains a popular figure at Leeds.

Oxford United manager Pep Clotet looks on prior to the Sky Bet League One match between Milton Keynes Dons and Oxford United at StadiumMK on September 2, 2017 in Milton Keynes, England.

Clotet was widely credited for doing an excellent job at Leeds, during his time as Monk’s assistant boss.

And Leeds fans now want to see him added to Thomas Christiansen’s backroom team.

Where Clotet would fit in at Leeds right now is not clear, as the Whites already have three assistant coaches in place in the form of Julio Banuelos, Paul Butler and Ivan Torres.

Clotet leaves Oxford with the U’s sitting in 10th place in the League One table.

Clotet did make a bright start at Oxford, but their results had taken a turn for the worse over recent weeks.

Clotet’s final match in charge at the Kassam Stadium finished as a 2-1 defeat to bottom of the table Bury.
