Radrizzani reveals Leeds contract talks planned for Bielsa

Leeds United owner Andrea Radrizzani says the club will open contract talks with Marcelo Bielsa in the coming days.

The Argentine led Leeds back to the Premier League by winning the Championship this season, and Radrizzani says the club will speak with Bielsa about his expiring deal.

"We needed someone that could lift up the value of our squad and he did it," he told Sky Sports.

"He also changed the culture of our club so I am very glad of the decision and we are working very well together.

"We will meet in the next days (for talks on a new contract).

"We always manage the decisions very calmly and nicely and I am sure he would like to stay and we are very pleased he stayed to enjoy the experience of the Premier League next season."
