"Leeds United are weighing up a managerial change as pressure mounts on Daniel Farke, with Brendan Rodgers emerging as the club's top target to take over, according to TEAMtalk. The Whites' board is reportedly considering a swift move for the former Celtic and Leicester City boss as they look to stabilise their season following a torrid run of form in the Premier League."
"Having guided Leeds to a brilliant finish in the Championship last season, Farke was widely praised for his tactical structure and man-management. However, the step up to Premier League competition has exposed the squad's lack of depth and experience. Leeds have struggled to adapt to the higher tempo, physicality, and tactical demands of the division, with poor defending and inconsistency in attack proving costly."
"Rodgers, who resigned from his post at Celtic earlier this month, has already been discussed internally as a realistic candidate. Rodgers, 52, left Celtic after securing two Scottish Premiership titles in his second spell at Parkhead but departed amid controversy following a fallout with major shareholder Dermot Desmond, who accused him of divisive and self-serving behaviour.

Leeds United face mounting pressure after losing six of seven matches, leaving the club in the Premier League relegation zone. The board is reportedly considering a swift managerial change and has identified Brendan Rodgers as the leading candidate. Daniel Farke, praised for guiding promotion and his tactical work in the Championship, has struggled in the higher-intensity Premier League due to squad depth, defensive issues and inconsistent attacking. Rodgers recently resigned from Celtic amid controversy but retains strong credentials from successful spells at Leicester City and Liverpool, prompting senior figures to see a new manager as a possible spark ahead of January.
