As you’ll be aware, Leeds United boss Marcelo Bielsa is a man who divides opinion right down the middle.

Some loathe the Argentine manager, labelling him a fraud and everything else in between, and some love him, labelling him a genius.

Generally, there is no middle ground when it comes to the Leeds boss, who it seems doesn’t attract people who like to sit on the fence when it comes to sharing their opinion about him.

Lately, there have been plenty of those singing his praises, mostly people who have worked with him and are a big fan of his work.

It seems, though, there is now a new category to add to the mix; those who have never worked with Bielsa and still think he’s incredible.

Step forward former Italy forward Antonio Cassano, who was full of praise for the Leeds United boss in a recent interview with journalist Pierluigi Pardo on Instagram Live.

“If I ever become a sports director, I will do my best to bring him to my team,” RedGol reports him saying.

“He is a soccer revolutionary, a disciplined person with a lot of personality.”

So, we can add Cassano to the ever-growing list of Bielsa admirers, although he stands out as he’s the first to say he’ll give him a job in future.

That’ll be one to look out for moving forward, although he may face a fight to get him out of Leeds first.
