Leeds United director of football Victor Orta has endeared himself to supporters after he was snapped putting scarves on the seats at Elland Road ahead of their crucial play-off match with Derby.
Orta was seen helping out with the final preparations ahead of Wednesday’s night game, which will see every home fan receive a free scarf on their seat as they cheer on Marcelo Bielsa’s side.
The small gesture has been widely praised on social media and fans have recognised the boss for his efforts.
One fan tweeted; ‘Gotta love Victor Orta putting the scarfs our himself,’ while another wrote; ‘Victor Orta helped to put out over 30,000 scarfs around Elland Road. Great work ethic, better club. #lufc.
The winner of tonight’s clash will go through to a Wembley showdown with Aston Villa for the chance to reach the Premier League.
