Here are your Leeds United evening headlines on Friday, April 7.

Jacob Greaves makes 'tough' Joe Gelhardt admission amid Sunderland loan

Hull City star Jacob Greaves has highlighted Leeds United loanee Joe Gelhardt as a threat to his side ahead of their clash this evening.

The 20-year-old is the Black Cats only out-and-out striker after their regular frontman Ross Stewart suffered a season-ending injury earlier this year.

And despite his struggles, having only scored once in his 13 appearances so far for the club, he's been hailed by both manager Tony Mowbray and now Greaves for his toughness.

"I know they’ve got a few good players from the time we played them at home, their attack is probably one of their strong points – they’ve got Ross Stewart injured," Greaves told Hull Live.

"But I know Joe Gelhardt from playing against him in youth football, he’s one of the toughest players I’ve played against. They’ve got brilliant players but so have we.

"I hope we can find that ruthlessness and go and score a few goals."

Leeds United legend says rivals Chelsea's hiring of Frank Lampard is 'total rubbish'

Leeds United legend John Giles believes that historic rivals Chelsea's move to hire Frank Lampard as an interim manager for the rest of the season is 'total rubbish'.

The new Chelsea boss and former England international played at Stamford Bridge for 13 years before becoming manager in 2019 until he was sacked in 2021.

Following a stint at Everton, which also saw him sacked earlier this season, Lampard has returned to the Blues to replace Graham Potter who was let go just seven months into his time at Chelsea.

Former Leeds United manager Marcelo Bielsa 'set to be confirmed' as Uruguay national team boss

Former Leeds United manager Marcelo Bielsa is reportedly set to be confirmed as the new Uruguayan national team manager after over a year out of management.

The 67-year-old was last in charge of the Whites at Elland Road in February 2022 when he was replaced by American Jesse Marsch following a string of poor results. Since then, Marsch has seen himself replaced by Spaniard Javi Gracia.

However, Bielsa remains a cult hero for Leeds fans following their promotion back to the Premier League under his guidance in the 2019/20 season.
