Leeds United transfer rumours as Raphinha move takes another twist and De Ketelaere latest

Here are your Leeds United transfer rumours for Monday, July 11.

Raphinha transfer takes another twist

Barcelona are prepared to put their pursuit of Leeds star Raphinha on the back-burner to prioritise up to five other transfer deals, according to Spanish outlet Mundo Deportivo. That could allow Chelsea to swoop in for the 25-year-old, who is set to depart Elland Road this summer.

The report suggests that a potential contract renewal for Ousmane Dembele could lead the Spanish side to make reinforcements in other areas of the pitch, rather than making Raphinha a priority.

Leeds have set a £60 million price tag on Raphinha, who joined the Whites in 2020. The winger has been left out of Leeds' squad for their pre-season tour of Australia.

AC Milan close in on Leeds target De Ketelaere

According to Italian journalist Nicolo Ceccarini, AC Milan are rapidly closing in on a deal for Leeds transfer target Charles De Ketelaere.

The Italian giants are reportedly in advanced negotiations with Club Brugge as they seek to push a deal for the highly-rated striker over the line. Leeds are interested in De Ketelaere, but the player is said to prefer a move to AC Milan.

The 21-year-old was left out of Club Brugge's friendly against FC Kobenhavn on Saturday.
