Transfer news: Barcelona confirm Messi transfer, Man Utd open Mount talks with Real Madrid for Kane plan

Leeds United could reconsider their plan to install Steven Gerrard and former Elland Road title winner, Gary McAllister, as their dream managerial pairing.

The duo came close to being appointed earlier this year after Jesse Marsh was sacked only in the Leeds hierarchy to replace Javi Gracia.

But now, after a disastrous season in which Marsh, Gracia and Sam Allardyce failed to prevent Leeds from relegated to the Championship, Gerrard and McAllister are back to their thoughts.

Leeds are also keen on their former coach Carlos Corbran who worked alongside Marcelo Bielsa but, having recently signed a new contract until 2027, they know it will be expensive to get the Spanish player out of Hawthorn.

Gerrard and McCallister are available immediately after remaining out of work since being sacked by Aston Villa in October.

Gerrard imagines the challenge of reviving the stricken club while McCallister has Leeds blood in his veins having been part of Howard Wilkinson’s title-winning side in 1992 in midfield alongside David Batty, Gordon Strachan and Gary Speed.

After talks between the club and Allardyce who had been in charge of the last four matches, it was decided to look elsewhere for a new coaching staff.

Gerrard and McAllister are on standby to answer the call after they missed out on the heels of Marsch’s exit.
