CONFIRMED: Uwe Rosler announced as new Leeds United boss
LEEDS UNITED have announced the appointment of Uwe Rosler as head coach on a two-year deal.
Uwe Rosler has been confirmed as the new boss at Leeds
The club announced that the 46-year-old German had signed a two-year contract following talks at Elland Road on Tuesday and he becomes Massimo Cellino's fifth head coach since the controversial Italian became owner in April 2014.
Neil Redfearn is still under contract until June 30 and had the option of resuming as academy manager, but it remains to be seen whether he has severed all ties with the club after his public stand-off with Cellino.
Cellino has branded former academy manager Redfearn as "weak" and a "baby" since returning to office earlier this month after serving a Football League ban for a tax conviction in his homeland last year.
