Leeds United boss Marcelo Bielsa honoured in bizarre Game of Thrones crossover

We all know Leeds United boss Marcelo Bielsa is so much more than a football manager and here’s another glimpse into the wonderful cult status of the Argentine.

Whites fans love the 64-year-old not just for guiding Leeds United to the top of the Championship table but also for just being him.

In the past, we’ve been fascinated by his bucket, there’s been a reworking of a Queen classic dedicated to him and he was even immortalised in a pirate ship.

The latest installment in the weird and wonderful world of Marcelo Bielsa sees a crossover with TV sensation Game of Thrones.

At the White Rose Shopping Centre you can now buy Bielsa King of The North t-shirts from the Kustom Stitch stall which are themed around the popular series.

And it might all be to do with a certain Nikolaj Coster-Waldau - a.k.a Jamie Lannister - who introduced the US to the 'king of the north' Bielsa earlier this year.

T-shirt ranges from the stall cost around £15 and this could make the ideal Christmas present for the Leeds United supporter in your life.
