Leeds United source reacts to disgraceful Daniel Farke sack news
Daniel Farke will be looking over his shoulder after clinching promotion to the Premier League, as Leeds United may sack him.
The Whites beat Stoke City emphatically at Elland Road on Monday (21 April), and Sheffield United’s loss to Burnley hours later confirmed the top two spots in the Championship.

While the news has come as a shock to many supporters, the Peacocks have now responded to those rumours and don’t seem happy about it.
Farke sack news blasted by Leeds United source as disgrace
A source close to the situation has blasted reports of Farke’s future at the Whites being under consideration, according to Leeds Live.
The news outlet reports (23 April) that the news of the German manager’s sacking being contemplated has been slammed as “a disgrace”.

| Championship | 44 | 27 | 13 | 4 |
It’s been claimed that the West Yorkshire outfit are only trying to concentrate on winning the title in the last two games of the season after securing promotion to the Premier League.
The Peacocks will return to the English top flight after a two-year exile, and the former Norwich City boss will arguably feel hard done by if he’s relieved of his duties before the upcoming campaign.
49ers must show faith in Farke at Elland Road
Farke deserves praise at Elland Road for winning automatic promotion this season despite facing several obstacles.
While the Whites have one of the best squads in the second division of English football, the German manager had to contend with several fitness issues.
With the West Yorkshire outfit set to compete in the Premier League again, a massive summer is up ahead for them.
Farke should be backed by the 49ers in the upcoming transfer window, rather than speculation around his Leeds future swirling in newsrooms.
The German manager has done enough at Elland Road to deserve the confidence of the American owners.
While the 48-year-old head coach’s record with the Canaries was abysmal, the Whites should take lessons from it.
The 49ers evidently need to bolster Farke’s squad to give him the best chance of surviving relegation next season.
That being said, the German manager needs to be flexible with his approach to games against the top sides in the Premier League, something he arguably knows.
Now that the news of Farke’s sacking is out there, it won’t go away easily.
