BREAKING NEWS: Leeds United SACK director of football Victor Orta - and manager Javi Gracia looks set to follow today - with Sam Allardyce ready to step in to try to escape relegation

Leeds have sacked director of football Victor Orta after their 4-1 defeat to Bournemouth on Sunday.

Leeds have picked up just one point from their past five games, conceding 18 goals in the process as they have been plunged deep into relegation trouble.
