Steve Evans believes he can lead Leeds United to promotion next season.

Like David Wagner, Evans has been linked with the Celtic job, but says he would love to be back at Elland Road.

And with the right backing, he is confident a promotion charge is possible.

Said Evans : “This club needs stability. It has needed it for some time now. It now has an opportunity to have some stability. I have never hidden the fact that this is a club I would love to be in charge of next season.

“We know what the pressure will be and the remit that comes with it but I am as confident as I can be that if I get the support from the president, a promotion campaign will follow.

“This club has to challenge for the Premier League and it has to challenge sooner rather than later."
