Marcelo Bielsa has been appointed the new Leeds United head coach.
It has also been reported that the Argentine will earn £2 million per year as salary during his time in charge of Leeds.
The report has also claimed that the £20m transfer kitty is the Whites’ biggest since they were in the Premier League – which was way back in 2004.
Half of that transfer funds will come from the investment from the San Francisco 49ers, according to The Mirror, which also claims that Bielsa and Leeds have discussed the signings of Derby County forward Matej Vydra, departing Hull City striker Abel Hernandez and Manchester City goalkeeper Angus Gunn.
Exciting times for Leeds United fans
Bielsa is one of the best and most innovative of football managers around, and getting the Argentine to Elland Road is quite a coup for Leeds.
With Leeds chairman Andrea Radrizzani (reportedly) ready to splash the cash in the summer transfer window, the Elland Road outfit can expect a major push for promotion to the Premier League.
