Leeds United are still considering Daniel Falke's replacement and submitting a "strong offer" to the Real Madrid legend.

He said: "My plan has always been to come over and talk to you all after the season, and it's this time.

"I want to tell you that I'm so glad to be back with Daniel. ”

Nevertheless, Spanish media Ass reported that Leeds United had an intention to appoint Real Madrid idol Raul.

The Spanish international, who has played 102 times for Real Madrid, scored 323 goals in 741 games until his retirement in 2015.

Raul returned to management and coached Real Madrid reserve Real Madrid Castilla since 2019.

Leeds United were linked with Raul in 2023 as they were looking for a coach to replace Jesse Marsh, and they reportedly remained on the 47th. The coach of the year is interested.

Les Ass reported that Raul has decided to "say goodbye" to Real Madrid because he is looking for a new beginning at other clubs after missing the head coaching position of the Spanish giants, and Xavi Alonso will replace Carlo Ancelotti.

Roul has reportedly already has a choice, and Leeds United and two other clubs are his suitors.
