As there is plenty of discussion surrounding Daniel Farke’s future at Leeds United, positive talks seem have been had.
With plenty of consideration being made by the 49ers over Farke’s future at the club, the German might be staying after all.
According to reports, Farke is set to remain Leeds boss, in a decision probably favoured by the fanbase.
This doesn’t mean anything is set in stone with the Leeds hierarchy no doubt still having their doubts, but it shows good signs.
The Leeds squad is backing Farke, and Paraag Marathe might agree with their sentiment after a major factor has stood out.
What has ‘impressed’ Leeds United hierarchy about Daniel Farke
It’s become clear that despite doing well this season, the 49ers are willing to make ruthless decisions.
The fanbase probably see it as fair for Farke to remain in his post and see how he gets on in the top flight.
On the other side, it makes sense with newly-promoted sides struggling as Marco Silva has warned Leeds about the difficulty.
Farke himself knows the challenge that lies ahead after he only managed to accumulate 21 points in his only full season in the big time.
However, what has impressed Marathe about Farke might give a secret to the 49ers’ transfer approach this summer.
The Athletic has revealed how Peter Lowy and Marathe feel about Farke after the reports that he was set to be let go.
Sources say board member Lowy has become one of Farke’s biggest supporters, as Marathe expressed how impressed he was with the way Farke had handled the opening weeks of his reign.
Two or three of the candidates they interviewed for the job wouldn’t have stuck with the task Farke has been dealt, but more specifically, due to the number of loan clauses being activated.

Farke deserves the first half of the Premier League season at Leeds
There are many reasons as to why Farke should be replaced going off recent trends, but with his Norwich reign proving to be difficult in itself, it’s probably not a fair comparison.
It seems like funding will be a key factor separating his chances with the Whites in the top flight, as Leeds have a £100m transfer plan.
Adding to this, Leeds’ status as a club gives them every right to remain as a Premier League club as Marathe wants Leeds established in the top eight.
With these factors considered, Farke deserves a chance until December, then the 49ers can assess where they’re at, and can use January as an option to strengthen or go sensibly depending on where Leeds are sat.
The summer will be pivotal not only for Leeds but also for Farke’s future.
