Sam Allardyce has agreed to become Leeds United's new manager as the club desperately bid to stave off relegation, 90min understands.

The Whites have been in dreadful form for a number of months, with the dismissal of Jesse Marsch in February in favour of Javi Gracia failing to yield an improvement in results.

90min reported on Monday that Leeds were considering Gracia's future at the club, with a decision subsequently made to remove the former Watford boss from his post after just 12 games in charge.
