Leeds United has appointed Garry Monk as head coach on a one-year contract.
Monk has been out of work since he was sacked by Swansea in December, while Championship side Leeds parted company with Steve Evans on Tuesday night.
The 37-year-old, who was a long-serving player at Swansea and took over as boss in February 2014, becomes the seventh manager at Elland Road since Massimo Cellino acquired the club in April 2014.
Monk told his new club's official website: "It feels great to be here. I'm extremely honoured to join Leeds United Football Club - we all know the history of the club and the standing it has in English football.
"I feel really honoured to be here and I'm really looking forward to the challenge ahead. The passion of the fans, the history and the ambition of the owner all ties in with what I wanted to do.
