New manager Sam Allardyce's Leeds United staff will not have a familiar name in it.

Former England international Sammy Lee has worked with Allardyce at many of his previous clubs.

The two had their most successful stint together at Bolton, while he was even Allardyce's no.2 when he was briefly England manager.

According to The Times, Allardyce wanted to bring along Lee, but is unable to do so.

The latter has jury service that he cannot ignore, and the Premier League season is nearing its conclusion.

Leeds have a tough run of games to close out the campaign, starting with Manchester City on Saturday.
