Zola not in Leeds United frame
Gianfranco Zola is not in line to replace Brian McDermott as Leeds manager should he lose his job, the former Chelsea player’s agent has insisted
McDermott’s position at Elland Road has come under particular scrutiny this week since the takeover of the club by Massimo Cellino - the Italian who tried and failed to sack him on a crazy day back in January.
Cellino instructed McDermott via a third party that he had lost his job on January 31 as he prepared to exchange contracts for a 75 per cent purchase with Leeds’ now former owners Gulf Finance House Capital, only for McDermott to get his position back a day later when it emerged his sacking was not valid.
