Leeds United boss Marcelo Bielsa has given his approval to Olympique Marseille's appointment of Jorge Sampaoli.
Sampaoli will take charge of OM after the sacking of Andre Villas-Boas.
Former OM coach Bielsa told Canal+: "He's a very well-known coach, he coached Argentina and Chile, he won important titles in South America.
"He coached Sevilla FC in Europe.
"So, no matter what opinion I give, his career speaks for itself."
