admin“Just in; Daniel Farke make Daniel Farke sack decision as club stance confirmed, timing raises eyebrow
It’s shaping up to be a long and uneasy week for Leeds United and manager Daniel Farke following another disappointing weekend result.
The Whites now sit just one point above the relegation zone, and pressure on the German boss is mounting fast.
Leeds have now lost four of their last five Premier League matches, yet Farke insists there’s no cause for panic — claiming it’s “a good thing” that the team is averaging a point per game.
Those remarks have done little to calm supporters, especially after he described the fanbase as “emotional” in the aftermath of the 3–1 defeat to Nottingham Forest, sparking widespread anger among Leeds fans.
Since the weekend, speculation has intensified around Farke’s future, with reports linking Brendan Rodgers and Marco Rose to the Elland Road hot seat.
With the international break now underway, many believe it could be the perfect opportunity for the 49ers ownership group to make a managerial change. However, it appears Farke will remain — at least for now.
Sky Sports delivers key update on Farke’s future
According to Sky Sports journalist Zinny Boswell, Leeds United have decided to stand by Farke for the time being. The club reportedly has “no plans to change their head coach as things stand,” despite growing frustration among supporters.
Boswell explained: “After taking 11 points from 11 Premier League games, both Leeds and Farke feel the team are still on course to meet their goal of survival.”
However, the challenge ahead is daunting. Data from Opta reveals Leeds have the toughest fixture list in the league over the next five matches — with Aston Villa, Chelsea, and Liverpool all visiting Elland Road, plus away trips to Manchester City and Brentford.
Boswell added that Farke’s inclusion in next week’s broadcast interviews is a clear sign that he’ll remain in charge for at least some of these upcoming fixtures. The club reportedly believes that Elland Road’s atmosphere could still be a decisive factor in their battle to stay up.
The timing raises questions
The timing of this backing is intriguing. A recent report from The Mail claimed that Farke had five games to save his job, beginning with the Nottingham Forest clash — which Leeds lost convincingly. That means one defeat is already on the board, and the next four fixtures look brutal.
Next up is high-flying Aston Villa, who have won eight of their last ten matches under Unai Emery. With Chelsea, Manchester City, and Liverpool to follow, Leeds could realistically end this run without a single point — a scenario that would almost certainly seal Farke’s fate.
For now, the 49ers have chosen patience. But with the clock ticking loudly at Elland Road, Daniel Farke’s time could be running out fast unless he delivers a dramatic turnaround.
