Bielsa 'to move into Leeds training base'

Marcelo Bielsa has reportedly installed a kitchen and bed at Leeds United's training base to further dedicate himself to the club's promotion push.

The 63-year-old has lived up to his reputation since being appointed Whites boss in the summer, having taken the Yorkshire outfit to the top of the Championship with nearly half the season played.

After a 12-year spell away from the top flight of English football, the Argentine coach is determined to maintain his side's promotion push over the next five months.

According to The Mirror, Bielsa has made changes to his office at Thorp Arch after losing patience with the city's traffic, giving him more time to plan ahead of matches.

Bielsa has previous when it comes to quirky ideas, famously spending a few months without a television to instead read books on football after departing as Argentina manager in 2004.
