Norwich City's former manager Daniel Farke will be backed at Leeds to build on Premier League safety and an FA Cup semi-final. Leeds chairman Paraag Marathe has publicly responded to Farke's direct challenge. Farke appeared to warn towards the end of last season that he was 'not the right head coach' to stay at Elland Road if the ownership's strategy did not match his ambition. Marathe has now responded to Farke's challenge, saying he loves his ambition and that they are on the same page. Marathe added that they have arrived at a point where they don't have to constantly be answering questions about survival, and that they are on the train to success. Farke is approaching the final 12 months of his deal at the Whites, and Marathe hopes and expects him to be with the club for a while. Marathe believes that Farke is a big part of their future and that they will have conversations about his contract at the right time. Farke is a very important part of what they do in the football side, and Marathe thinks that he has the right to say 'no' to players who don't fit.
