Daniel Farke has quickly moved to play down fanciful suggestions in Germany that he could be replaced at the Leeds United helm by Jurgen Klopp, insisting the club have a clear strategy and with another observer dismissing claims the Whites boss faces the sack.Farke was desperately close to missing out on promotion back to the Premier League with Leeds at the first time of asking after the West Yorkshire side finished third with 90 points – the highest total not to achieve automatic promotion in the second tier since 1997 – and then seeing his side beaten 1-0 in the play-off final against Southampton.Despite having to wave farewell to some £120m worth of talent off the back of that failure, Farke and Leeds have started the new season brightly, losing just one of their nine matches played so far, with the four wins they have picked up currently seeing them sat in fifth.
