Huddersfield have confirmed the appointment of Carlos Corberan as their new head coach.

The 37-year-old has made the short switch from Sky Bet Championship winners and local rivals Leeds United, where he was assistant to Marcelo Bielsa.

Corberon replaces Danny Cowley, who was sacked on Sunday 48 hours after Town secured Championship safety with a 2-1 win over West Brom.
