Leeds United have still not arranged any pre-season friendlies or a tour, meaning it is only themselves and Sheffield Wednesday out of all the Championship clubs to still have their preparations up in the air.

The Whites were left in limbo after the end of the season with no confirmation over the future of head coach Steve Evans, something which only arrived at the end of May.




Leeds then moved quickly to appoint former Swansea City manager Garry Monk as their new head coach, but there is still no news over how they will be preparing for a campaign in which they hope to win promotion to the Premier League.

Sheffield Wednesday meanwhile are also yet to announce their fixtures, which means the two Yorkshire clubs are the only Championship sides not to have confirmed any plans, according to the Yorkshire Evening Post.
 


The Owls came agonisingly close to winning promotion to the Premier League last season, but lost out in the Championship playoff final to Hull City.
