Paul Heckingbottom took over as Leeds United head coach in early 2018 after impressing at Barnsley. His tenure was short and difficult, managing only 16 matches and winning just four. He was dismissed at the end of the season to make way for Marcelo Bielsa. Heckingbottom later went on to manage Sheffield United, taking them back to the Premier League.
