It is set to be another long summer for Leeds United supporters who will be left to sweat over the futures of Kalvin Phillips and Raphinha. Both players continue to be linked with moves away from Elland Road and a number of clubs are said to be circling.
Following the back-to-back victories against Norwich and Wolves, there is an increased belief that Jesse Marsch will be able to keep the Whites in the Premier League. If he is able to ensure Leeds are playing in the top flight again next season, it gives the club much greater bargaining power.
Potential relegation for any team in the Premier League leads to inevitable rumours about the departure of the star players and that is exactly the case at Elland Road. In Raphinha’s case, a drop into the second tier would reportedly lower his release clause to a scarily low £25m.
