Sturm Graz boss Darko Milanic is favourite to take the Leeds United job.

The 46-year-old former Yugoslavia and Slovenia international is resolving his severance package from the Austrian club, reports BBC Radio Leeds.

Milanic won nine titles as a coach with his former club Maribor.

Leeds are 11th in the Championship, with Neil Redfearn as caretaker boss following the sacking of David Hockaday last month.
