Farke wants Leeds to take flight just like impressive Cherries
LEEDS boss Daniel Farke admits Bournemouth have provided a blueprint for promoted teams striving to become established Premier League sides.
Chairman Paraag Marathe has made it clear that his ultimate aim is for the Yorkshire club to stick around in the top flight with Championship promotion the first step in his project.
Bournemouth spent five seasons in the Premier League before returning to the Championship for two.
But since their second promotion in 2022, the Cherries have finished 15th, 12th and ninth in consecutive seasons.
And Farke believes today's visitors to Elland Road are a case study in how to transition from newbies to mainstays.
