Leeds boss Marcelo Bielsa has been spotted at Goodison Park watching Everton vs Bournemouth as he prepares to get some insight into the challenge ahead in the Premier League. The Argentine led Leeds to the Championship title this season, ending their 16-year wait for promotion back to the promised land.
Several members of the Leeds squad are now enjoying downtime in Ibiza on their holidays.
However, Bielsa is already beginning to prepare for the new season which gets underway in just under two months time.
The Premier League confirmed yesterday that the 2020/21 season will get underway on September 12 before finishing up on May 23.
Bielsa was keen to keep a watchful eye on both Everton and Bournemouth despite the fact the Cherries could be relegated by the end of play.

While he has remained focused throughout the entirety of the gruelling 46-game season, the Leeds players saw a different side to Bielsa during celebrations.
Stuart Dallas told talkSPORT: “He enjoyed himself on Friday night as well!
“It was nice to see that side of him.
“Over the last couple of years you do see a different side to him when things are going well, but to see the emotion on him as well was amazing.
