ACCORDING TO BBC SPORT:Leeds United’s ownership group, 49ers Enterprises, have reportedly reaffirmed their backing for manager Daniel Farke, despite recent managerial upheaval involving their other football project, Rangers.

According to multiple sources, the American investors remain fully committed to Farke’s long-term vision at Elland Road and are not considering a change, even as speculation continues to swirl following Rangers’ decision to part ways with Russell Martin.

The 49ers are said to be pleased with Farke’s leadership and the steady progress Leeds have made since returning to the Premier League. The German coach, who guided the Whites back to the top flight, has fostered a strong relationship with the club’s board and maintains the trust of key decision-makers.

A source close to the ownership told TeamTalk that there are “no immediate plans” to replace Farke, stressing that the club values stability and consistency after years of turbulence in the dugout. The manager’s current contract, which runs until June 2027, further underlines the board’s confidence in his long-term project.

While Rangers’ situation has prompted comparisons between the two clubs, insiders insist the Leeds hierarchy operate independently, with separate strategic goals and performance assessments. The 49ers are understood to believe that Farke remains the right man to guide the team toward a solid Premier League campaign.

However, sources also indicate that expectations remain high. A significant dip in form or failure to meet key performance benchmarks could reopen the conversation about Farke’s future later in the season.

For now, though, Leeds United’s leadership is standing firm — Daniel Farke’s position is secure, and the 49ers are focused on supporting him through the challenges ahead rather than repeating the swift managerial changes seen elsewhere.
