Hasselbaink, who spent a season managing Belgian second division side Royal Antwerp, would love to return to the club that kick started his playing career in England during the 1990’s.
”Leeds United is a wonderful big club where I had two great years. If they want to talk to me, of course I would talk [to them],” he told the Alan Brazil Sports Breakfast.

”If they want to talk to me, of course I would be interested. Who doesn’t want to manage Leeds United? It’s one of the ten biggest jobs in the country.”
