Leeds United have been in talks with Bielsa for a week now about taking over at Elland Road.

The club have been thrashing out a deal while waiting for a work permit for the Argentine to come to the UK.

And Argentine outlet Varsky Sports claim the work permit has been granted.

According to the report, Bielsa “has got the work permit and will soon be announced as the new coach of Leeds.

“He had already agreed his contract with the club that plays in the Championship.”
