Leeds United are set to confirm Javi Gracia as their new manager in the coming days.
The Elland Road club have finally secured a replacement for sacked Jesse Marsch.
Gracia, an ex-Watford coach, will get a short term contract with Leeds.
The Athletic says he will be in Yorkshire on Tuesday to finalize the deal.
His initial deal runs until the end of the term, as the club wants to avoid relegation first and foremost.
Leeds had been linked to Rafa Benitez, but he may not have accepted such a short term offer.
