Leeds United’s first press conference since the sacking of Jesse Marsch takes place today, and you can follow it live right here.

The Whites decided to move on from Marsch after 11 months on Monday, less than 24 hours after a potentially costly defeat to Nottingham Forest. The search for a new manager has now begun, but in the meantime, under-21s boss Michael Skubala will take charge as with back-to-back games against Manchester United this week, the first of which takes place on Wednesday night.

Skubala will face the media this afternoon as he dives in at the deep end, and you can follow live updates of the press conference below.
