The South American media continues to be super excited with the chance of seeing Marcelo Bielsa in the Premier League.

It’s not just the Argentine press who’s been having several stories about Leeds United in the past few days, but outlets from Chile, where the coach managed the national team, have been talking a lot about it too.

Radio show Al Aire Libre, from Cooperativa, now brings a report with two Chilean players who Bielsa could bring to Yorkshire this summer.

One of them is Claudio Bravo, whose contract with Manchester City expires at the end of the season. He’s already been linked to Leeds, and now journalist Maks Cardenas says he’d be a ‘ring on the finger’ for the Elland Road side.

The other option is Mauricio Isla, who’s a free agent since the end of his contract with Fenerbahçe last month. Al Aire Libre says he’s been in contact with Leeds United and could be another signing for Marcelo Bielsa.

Problem is that there’s the competition from Real Betis, since Chilean boss Mauricio Pellegrini invited him to the club as well.

Both players worked with Bielsa in La Roja between 2007 and 2011.
