Leeds United could be prepped for an exciting future under the 49ers as things are seemingly going to plan for Paraag Marathe.
They’ve had their doubts, but Leeds and the 49ers are pulling together to make a strong organisation.
Despite Angus Kinnear leaving for Everton the ownership could look to use Jurgen Klopp to bring in a replacement, showing they aren’t messing about.
Adding onto this, Marathe has plans for Elland Road in the hope of extending Leeds’ home to a capacity of 53,000.
Ally McCoist likes what he sees as the Rangers legend has given his thoughts on how well the 49ers have ran the Whites.
Ally McCoist makes exciting 49ers prediction at Leeds United
The relevance of McCoist talking on Leeds comes after the 49ers closing in on a Rangers takeover, as Marathe looks set for another challenge, this time in Scotland.
As a Gers fan himself, McCoist seems to be excited by the prospect of Marathe’s plans and has used Leeds as an example of how it can bring them success.
Speaking live on talkSPORT breakfast with Jeff Stelling (4 March, 9:22 am), McCoist talked about how the Whites faithful should be thrilled with their ownership.
“Leeds United to me look in a good place, they don’t look as though they just go bang, have that to spend and go over the top,” McCoist said.
“If you can have the same kind of change Leeds have had in and around the team, I’d settle for that.
“Leeds to me look in a good place at this moment in time. They look as though they’re going to go back to the top flight.
“They’ve got good organisation behind them, good manager, good players and if we (Rangers) can get that I’d be delighted.”

Despite prediction McCoist doesn’t back Leeds for Premier League success
It’s all well and good that McCoist backs the ownership coming into his club, but their off-field positives clearly haven’t made the impression on the pundit for Leeds to succeed in the Premier League.
With the Whites faithful nervous about whether they will achieve promotion, Alan Smith said Leeds fans need the Premier League.
However, despite this need, McCoist previously said he doesn’t back Daniel Farke’s side in the top flight.
This came after the Whites drew 0-0 with Scott Parker’s Burnley, as McCoist said Leeds would struggle in the league.
Whatever happens, happens, but surely if the ownership is ‘in a good place’, success will follow in the Premier League.
