'The media in England is so ridiculous' - Leeds United boss Jesse ... (Yorkshire Evening Post)

Jesse Marsch has hit out at prejudice he says he has faced simply for being an American, since taking over at Leeds United.

I'm a big communicator so I try to engage everybody to make them feel part of what we're doing and that's what galvanised our group more than anything." Whatever. I don't care, I'm not changing who I am, I'm going to be the leader that I want to be and work hard with the group I work with and find ways to grow and get better and succeed, that's what we did." Some people dont allow that kind of behaviour to happen and will treat me based on what I am or what our team is, that's ultimately what it should be. Any one thing the American says they want to just jump on and they want to then ridicule and find holes. Marsch's main point about the Manchester City defeat was that those games still have to yield positives and tangible benefits for the team's long-term growth, even if the scoreline doesn't immediately reflect that. At 4-0, it's a crazy thing to say but I truly believe that."

And Harrison’s goals have become somewhat of a good luck omen since his arrival four years ago. The 25-year-old has scored in 24 matches during his time at the club, with Leeds going onto lose just one of those – which came in the 4-3 defeat to Liverpool in the Whites’ first game back in the Premier League.

Leeds United owner Andrea Radrizzani has pledged to work with Jesse Marsch next season after the American ensured their Premier League survival.

Leeds United given green light to plough on with summer transfer ... (MOT Leeds News)

Leeds United staying in the Premier League has seen Victor Orta be given the "green light" in the transfer market, according to The Mirror.

Aaronson was one of Salzburg’s standout performers in the Champions League last season and he really made his mark in a man of the match display against Bayern Munich in the round of 16. There could still be outgoings despite their successful bid to survive the drop with Kalvin Phillips and Raphinha the two most likely to leave but the club want to restart negotiation over a new deal for both players. The deal will cost Leeds roughly £24million and it won’t be the last of the summer by a long stretch with Aberdeen’s Calvin Ramsay another potential target as they look for cover at right-back.

Don Hutchison believes that Leeds United are making the right choice by pursuing a move for RB Salzburg attacker Brenden Aaronson.

Marsch does like to play with an attacking midfielder and the 21-year-old would be ideal to play in the hole in behind Patrick Bamford. While they failed to sign the Argentine, they’re getting second-time lucky with Aaronson and he will be an exceptional signing for them. Having tried and failed to sign him in January, Leeds now look in pole position to secure a move for the American.

Leeds United Should Value Raphinha At This Amount - Former White (Inside Futbol)

Robbie Blake has indicated what kind of a price tag he wants Leeds United to put on Raphinha's head, amidst strong interest from Barcelona.

No. Asked whether he thinks £75m is a figure he would be looking for Raphinha’s services, Blake said on BBC Radio Leeds: “Well, I think in terms of the current market, which is so bizarre, it would not be far off that, would you, to be honest?

During his tenure at the club, Marsch has spoken on several occasions about the fact that his team hadn't been able to move closer towards his tactical style.

Leeds United on verge of signing Aaronson, medical soon (MOT Leeds News)

Red Bull Salzburg midfielder Brenden Aaronson will "soon" undergo a medical to join Leeds United, according to Sky Sports journalist Florian Plettenberg.

Jesse Marsch will no doubt be overjoyed to bring in a fellow American who’s not only been on Orta’s radar previously, but is also a very talented young man who can do a much-needed job for the Whites. Red Bull Salzburg midfielder Brenden Aaronson will “soon” undergo a medical to join Leeds United, according to Sky Sports Germany journalist Florian Plettenberg. It’s been a long time coming and the failure to add that position under Marcelo Bielsa’s rule was one of the reasons why the Yorkshire giants were in so much trouble this season in the Premier League.
