Leeds United and Huddersfield Town are thrashing out a compensation agreement while Carlos Corberan weighs up his Whites future.
The Terriers first approached the Whites around a month ago with an enquiry about Corberan’s situation with a view to making him their head coach.
However, talks did not progress hugely while United’s Championship title challenge hung in the balance.
Now, with the Championship crown secured, LeedsLive understands Corberan looks closer than ever to moving on from Elland Road with a hefty financial package on the table.

On Monday morning, director of football Victor Orta gave the first hint he believed Corberan may finally go, but the first-team coach is still considering his options.
While Orta talks with United’s West Yorkshire neighbours, Corberan must weigh up leaving Marcelo Bielsa’s side on the cusp of Premier League football.
Taking a Championship job of his own would be a massive step forward for Corberan’s career after a series of lower-profile roles before joining the Whites as under-23s boss.
Corberan will discuss his future with Bielsa directly and the Argentine’s advice is likely to be the deciding factor in his decision.
