Leeds United hires Sam Allardyce to avoid relegation.
Leeds United have appointed Sam Allardyce as their new head coach on a short-term deal for the remainder of the season, with Javi Gracia leaving his position as head coach. Allardyce has been tasked with averting relegation with just four games to go. Leeds, who are only out of the drop zone on goal difference, moved to open talks with the 68-year-old on Monday after deciding to sack Gracia in the wake of Sunday’s 4-1 defeat to Bournemouth.
