TalkSPORT pundit Danny Mills believes Leeds United have a massive job on their hands to replace departing duo Kalvin Phillips and Raphinha.
Phillips looks set to join Manchester City after they agreed a £42m deal with Leeds last week for the midfielder while transfer talks around Raphinha to Chelsea have heated up in recent days. The Brazilian will likely follow Phillips out of Elland Road for a reported fee of around £55m, which would give Leeds a total of just under £100m to replace their star duo.
There can be no doubt Leeds will be poorer on the pitch as a result of Phillips and Raphinha's departures. Over the last two seasons, the pair played a pivotal role in helping Leeds achieve a 9th place finish in the 2020/21 campaign as well as keeping the Whites in the Premier League last term.
