The 46-year-old German coach, known for his successful tenure at Norwich City, takes over from Sam Allardyce, who was unable to prevent the club’s relegation from the Premier League.
Farke’s appointment marks a significant step in Leeds’ efforts to rebuild and secure promotion back to the Premier League. He brings a wealth of experience, having led Norwich to two Championship titles in 2019 and 2021. His tactical acumen and leadership qualities are expected to play a pivotal role in Leeds’ aspirations for the upcoming season.
Expressing gratitude for the opportunity, Farke stated, “I’d like to thank everyone for the really warm welcome. I’m really grateful at this moment to work for this amazing club.” He emphasized his commitment to fulfilling the expectations placed upon him and repaying the trust shown by the club.
Leeds United’s chairman, Paraag Marathe, also expressed confidence in Farke’s leadership, stating, “He is my man,” and reaffirmed the club’s commitment to building a competitive squad for their return to the Premier League.
As Leeds United embarks on this new chapter, Farke’s appointment signifies a renewed focus on achieving success and stability, with the long-term vision of returning to the top flight of English football.
