The Spaniard will not remain at Leeds United.
Leeds United coach Pep Clotet has posted a goodbye message to Whites supporters on his final day at Elland Road.
Clotet, who was brought to Leeds by former boss Garry Monk last summer, is leaving the Championship club at the end of his 12-month deal.

Unlike former colleagues James Beattie, Darryl Flahavan, Sean Rush and Ryan Needs, Clotet has already confirmed he will not be following Monk to new club Middlesbrough.
And according to Sky Sports, the Spaniard is the current frontrunner to become Oxford United’s next manager, after Michael Appleton quit to become Craig Shakespeare’s number two at Leicester City.
Clotet, who also posted a video of his year in Yorkshire, wrote on Twitter: “Today is my last day at @LUFC and I’ll never forget this fantastic period in my life, in which I learned lots and fully enjoyed myself.
“I’ll be forever grateful to everyone at Leeds for the affection and support they offered me right from day one.”
Clotet, who studied Louis van Gaal at Barcelona before embarking on a coaching career of his own, was credited with transforming Leeds’ defensive fortunes by former loan player Kyle Bartley, speaking to the BBC earlier in the campaign.

New Leeds boss Thomas Christiansen has already added Julio Banuelos, Ivan Torres and Marcos Abad to his Elland Road coaching team.
