According to the Athletic journalist, Phil Hay, Huddersfield Town want Carlos Corberan as their new manager.
They have approached Leeds United about signing him as their next boss. The Whites want to keep him at the club, but at the same time, they will not stand in the way of his personal growth.
Leeds will let him go if he decides to move on. In that case, they will charge a compensation fee.

In a separate tweet, Hay has suggested that Corberan could be interested in a move as well, as he wants to be a first-team boss.
I think he might. Keen to be a first-team boss.

Many Leeds United fans have taken to Twitter to express their reaction to the news. Some of them feel that had Leeds not secured the promotion, they would have appointed him the first-team boss at Elland Road. Here are some of the selected tweets:
Ahhh I’m gutted about this. Got some real potential and experience though, if he wants it all the best to him!

Lose/lose situation taking over Town, no money and no squad to bring through that wants to be there. Stick with us for the time being and see what comes up.

I have to say the idea that Carlos was poised to takeover when Bielsa steps away is the modern day equivalent of wanting Eddie Gray to become manager and play t'bloody kids

i think he might speak to leeds before making his decision if they tell him he will get the leeds job when bielsa leaves/gets sacked then he will likely stay if not then he will go to Huddersfield and no one can really blame him

Would be such a bizarre move. Being lined up as the natural successor to Bielsa, premier league surroundings – why risk that to go to Huddersfield?

Huddersfield sacked the Cowley brothers Danny and Nicky on Sunday.
