Former Middlesbrough boss Aitor Karanka is in talks to take charge of Leeds United.
The Sun says he is close to being named as new Leeds boss – after his big mate Victor Orta was hired as Elland Road's director of football.
The pair are on course to renew their partnership at Leeds, with Karanka the hot favourite to replace Garry Monk at the Yorkshire club's helm.
Orta said: “I am excited by the opportunity to become Director of Football at a great club like Leeds United.
“Once I had met with Andrea Radrizzani and spoken to him about his plans to take the club forward, I knew that this was the right move for me and I am confident that we can achieve great things in the coming years."
