Read our privacy policy Leeds caretaker boss Michael Skubala has no plans in place to remain in charge beyond Sunday’s home clash with Manchester United. Leeds Under-21s boss Skubala took charge of Wednesday night’s 2-2 draw at Old Trafford and will be in the dugout again for the Roses rivals’ second Premier League meeting in the space of five days. Skubala said he was focused solely on Sunday’s encounter as Leeds bid for their first league win since November 5 and their first league win against arch rivals Manchester United in over 20 years. “That’s where I have to be calm and I have to be strong in my decisions to believe in what we can do as a team and focus on our strengths to go and impact this game.” Leeds let slip a 2-0 lead on Wednesday night as Marcus Rashford’s header and substitute Jadon Sancho’s effort cancelled out Willy Gnonto’s brilliant finish inside the opening 60 seconds and Raphael Varane’s own goal.
