"Leeds could be set to appoint a new manager in the coming weeks, with Daniel Farke under increasing pressure at Elland Road. A run of one win in six matches has seen them slip to 16th in the Premier League standings, only one point outside of the relegation zone. There had been doubts about whether Farke could lead Leeds in the Premier League, but he was given the opportunity by the club's hierarchy after winning the Championship last season."
"In the event that Farke is sacked, Leeds have lined up two former Premier League managers as candidates to replace him, as per The Daily Mail (via Leeds United News). They are Brendan Rodgers, who recently resigned at Celtic, and Ange Postecoglou, who is seeking his third Premier League job of 2025 after being previously sacked by Tottenham and Nottingham Forest. Rodgers and Postecoglou both have track records of winning trophies, but in terms of Premier League relegation dogfights, they both lack significant experience."
Leeds have won only once in six Premier League matches and have fallen to 16th place, one point above the relegation zone. Daniel Farke is under growing pressure as the club risks further decline. The club retained confidence in Farke after he won the Championship, but current form has placed his position in jeopardy. Leeds have identified two former Premier League managers as potential successors: Brendan Rodgers and Ange Postecoglou. Both candidates have histories of winning trophies, while lacking extensive experience in prolonged Premier League relegation battles. Leeds host Aston Villa after the international break as a key opportunity to reverse form.
