The future of striker Rodrigo looks set to dominate headlines alongside some of the biggest transfer stories this summer. The 32-year-old has been linked with interest from a number of clubs.
Relegation to the Championship, twinned with the 49ers takeover, could see changes made to the Leeds United squad for next season as they look to secure a return to the Premier League.
Already credited with interest in the Spaniard is Brighton, Aston Villa and European giants PSG. And what is likely to fuel speculation over his future further throughout the summer is a reported relegation release clause of just £3m.
Clubs are being tipped to put their hat in the ring for him and he could well be the subject of a transfer battle with clubs in this country and abroad.

Rodrigo is one of a number of high-profile transfer chases that could be taking place, alongside the likes of Declan Rice and James Maddison.
West Ham star Rice is expected to leave the Hammers after guiding them to European glory. However, it's expected to run and run with the London club hoping for an auction.
Arsenal have been the most keen with reports of a £100m bid, while the likes of Manchester City, Manchester United and Chelsea are all being tipped to join the race for his signature.
There is another possible saga involving Brighton's Moises Caicedo. He was the subject of rejected bids from Arsenal and Chelsea in the January window.
It's been reported that Seagulls' boss Roberto De Zerbi will allow him to leave if the club's valuation is met.
James Maddison is another name expected to be involved in a transfer tussle. The midfielder is wanted by both Newcastle and Tottenham.
Indeed, it was reported yesterday that Spurs had made the first move for the England international, offering Leicester, who were relegated alongside Leeds, £50m in a double deal that also included Harvey Barnes.
