Leeds United chief executive Angus Kinnear says manager Marcelo Bielsa is a step away from penning a new contract.
His contract expired at the end of the season, but Kinnear is confident Bielsa will sign a new deal shortly.
"I know fans are nervous, it makes me a bit nervous, but I don't think there is any reason to be," he said.
"Marcelo is absolutely focused on training, but like last season where I know everyone was nervous about the contract, it is about him getting the time to focus on signing it.
"While we have conversations pretty much daily, it tends to be about the season preparations rather than his contract."
