'I will listen to their proposal' - Bielsa hints he could stay on as Leeds boss

Marcelo Bielsa says he would consider staying on as Leeds United head coach despite their agonising defeat to Derby County in the Championship play-off semi-final.

Bielsa has been reluctant to discuss his future in recent weeks amid rumours the Argentine could quit after just one season in charge.

That speculation increased after Wednesday’s defeat at Elland Road, which saw Derby overcome a 1-0 first leg deficit and seal their place in the play-off final against Aston Villa later this month with a 4-2 win.

Bielsa was typically coy when he was again asked about his future after the game, but admitted he was open to the idea of staying on in West Yorkshire.
