Leeds are poised to name Steve Staunton as assistant manager to Gary McAllister.
The former Republic of Ireland boss will meet the Leeds squad at Thorp Arch with a view to being confirmed as McAllister's number two at Elland Road.
Staunton, who won 102 international caps for the Republic, will team up with McAllister after the pair worked together at Coventry.
Staunton was appointed successor to Brian Kerr as Republic coach in January 2006, but was sacked the following October following an unsuccessful Euro 2008 qualifying campaign.
