Thomas Christiansen - appointed at Elland Road on June 15 2017 following Garry Monk’s departure from West Yorkshire. The Dane saw his Whites team hit the summit of the Championship in September but lost his job in February following a 4-1 defeat to Cardiff City after a poor run of form an discipline.

Paul Heckingbottom - appointed as Christiansen’s successor two days after he was sacked, Leeds paid £500,000 for his services from fellow Yorkshire club Barnsley. The 40-year-old oversaw a torrid run of form winning just three league games out of 16.
