Leeds United chairman Paraag Marathe has confirmed that Daniel Farke will be leading them in the Premier League<\/a> next season following rumours that the German would be axed<\/a> despite leading the club to the Championship title.<\/p>\n Farke’s side sealed the title in dramatic fashion on the final day of the season<\/a> with a late winner against Plymouth Argyle but have been the division’s standout team throughout the campaign. This marks the third occasion Farke has won the Championship after doing so twice with Norwich City<\/a>.<\/p>\n On both occasions the Canaries struggled in the Premier League, with Farke overseeing a 20th place finish in one campaign and being relieved of his duties in November during the other. That record had led to speculation that Leeds could opt to make a change over the summer.<\/p>\n But Marathe has emphatically shut down talk of such a move by saying he is ‘really excited’ to work with Farke next year in a bid to re-establish Leeds in the top-flight.<\/p>\n READ MORE: Daniel Farke admits he felt \u2018empty\u2019 after Leeds title celebrations as sack theory raised<\/a>READ MORE: Frank Lampard salutes Coventry City’s double hero as Premier League hopes remain alive<\/a><\/p>\n \u201cI want to tell you all I\u2019m very excited to run it back with Daniel,\u201d he told reporters. \u201cI\u2019m really excited about collaborating with Daniel, with Robbie Evans, with Adam Underwood and, together, we are going to build the best squad we can with every penny we\u2019re allowed to spend to compete in the Premier League.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m under no illusions it\u2019s going to be easy. I know all the stats. Last season\u2019s three promoted clubs went right back down. Two years ago, three promoted clubs went right back down, but we have something they don\u2019t.\u201d<\/p>\n Join the debate!<\/a> Do you think Leeds have made the right call? Let us know here<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n Prior to Marathe’s comments, an image of Farke hunched in the visiting dugout on his own following Leeds’ dramatic late winner at Plymouth. But he insisted he was just too tired to join in with the celebrations such was his focus on pipping Burnley<\/a> to the title.<\/p>\n He explained: \u201cI was so focused to win promotion but honestly I was a bit greedy for the title in recent weeks. We spoke about the only time we won this title was without supporters. I wanted this so badly.<\/p>\n \u201cI felt empty at the final whistle. I was too tired to celebrate. Even at half-time, it was complicated because I wanted to give the right message. I am proud to have achieved what we wanted to.\u201d<\/p>\n Farke added: \u201cLooking forward to being on the coach home and to close my eyes. I have to be ready again to celebrate this evening. Next week will be celebrating. I need the summer to recharge my energy.\u201d<\/p>\n Join our new WhatsApp community<\/a> and receive your daily dose of Mirror Football content.
