Happy birthday. Thomas Christiansen before going into management was a striker and even won the Bundesliga Golden Boot in 2003 with VfL Bochum. He was appointed manager on 15th June 2017. We began the season strongly and we were top of the Championship in September 2017. His style aimed for possession-based football instead of our previous direct approach. Things didn’t go well and in 2018 Thomas left Leeds and moved on to manage Royale Union Saint‑Gilloise. Thomas Christiansen is now the head coach of Panama is currently preparing for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
