Edu has stepped up Arsenal's efforts in signing Raphinha this summer amid growing interest from Chelsea and Tottenham. The 25-year-old has been heavily linked with an exit from Elland Road and, while Leeds United are said to have outlined an asking price, reports claim that no side is yet to have met the evaluation.
Raphinha, who has emerged as one of Europe's most coveted wingers, featured 35 times for Jesse Marsch's side in the Premier League last season, directly contributing towards 14 goals. His impressive displays steered Leeds clear of relegation from the top-flight.
According to Fabrizio Romano, there was a secret clause in Raphinha's contract that is dependent on whether Leeds were relegated or not. Had the Yorkshire-based club been relegated it would have reportedly activated a £25million release clause.
