Former Ajax manager Alfred Schreuder is no longer in contention to become the new Leeds United boss.

The 50-year-old Dutchman was one of a number of possible short-term candidates in contention for the role.

Schreuder watched Sunday's 2-0 loss to Manchester United at Elland Road and had been shown around the club, including the training ground.

He spoke to directors at the club but has flown back to the Netherlands, with Leeds now discussing other options.

Schreuder replaced Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag at Ajax in the summer but was sacked in January.

Leeds, who sacked Jesse Marsch in February after a poor run of form, next play at 18th-placed Everton on Saturday.

Under 21-coach Michael Skubala has been in temporary charge at Elland Road since Marsch was dismissed after a 1-0 defeat by Nottingham Forest.
