Marcelo Bielsa has revealed the full extent of the “Spygate” scandal that has rocked the Championship.

Leeds United’s manager admitted to spying on Derby County’s training sessions prior to beating them 2-0 on Friday.

And, at an impromptu press conference on Wednesday, he has now amazingly revealed that he has spied on every team Leeds have faced thus far this season.

He said, per the Yorkshire Evening Post: “My goal is to make the EFL investigation easier.”

Bielsa then admitted to spying on every single club they have faced this season, and added: “By doing this, I assume the possible sanction that the authorities might bring.”

It remains to be seen how Leeds may be punished by the relevant authorities.

The Elland Road club are currently top of the Championship, four points clear of second-placed Sheffield United.

Leeds have won 16 of their 27 outings this season, scoring 46 goals and conceding 28 along the way.

And supporters and pundits alike have, perhaps surprisingly, expressed their admiration for the Argentine, with many praising his honesty.
