Cellino arriving after sacking 37th manager
Vital Leeds 7/4/14
New Leeds United owner Massimo Cellino is arriving in England having sacked another manager.
Cellino, the current owner of Italian Serie A side Cagliari, has sacked their manager Diego Lopez after their 3-1 defeat to Roma on Sunday.
The sacking of Lopez is the 37th manager he has sacked at Cagliari in 22-years and he is expected to arrive in England today to begin his role as club president after winning his appeal to take control of the club over the weekend.
The eccentric Italian has already said that he will be firing the clubs Managing Director David Haigh and having already sacked Brian McDermott once, it looks like he could be next on his hit list.
McDermott watched on at the weekend as Leeds lost for a seventh time in eight games and having been sacked on the final day of the January transfer window before being reinstated, the chances of the former Reading boss being in charge of the game at Watford on Tuesday night are already looking slim.
It is sure to be an interesting first week in charge for Cellino who is also looking to buy back the Elland Road ground and training facility.
