Mundo Deportivo reports Leeds United fans are going crazy for Marcelo Bielsa. The manager’s appointment was announced last week and Mundo cover the rush for season tickets which has happened since.
It’s claimed ‘madness’ has already been ‘unleashed’ at Elland Road, and claims of the possible Jon Aurtenetxe signing are covered.
The football world is waiting to see what ‘El Loco’ can achieve at Leeds United.
