Leeds United have hired Sam Allardyce as their next manager, per the British press.

The Mail and various other reputable sources state the former England manager will get the job for the final four games of this season.

Leeds are desperate to avoid relegation and have sacked Javi Gracia with such little of the campaign to go.

Allardyce will earn £500,000 for the work he will do at Leeds, but there is much more on the line.

If he does keep the club in the Premier League, he will get a massive £3 million bonus.

However, his old sidekick Sammy Lee will not be joining, as he has jury service.
