Leeds tell Barcelona they want at least £55m for Raphinha... after Premier League survival prevented Brazil winger from leaving Elland Road on the cheap

Leeds United have told Barcelona they want over £55m for Raphinha.

Following their survival last month with a dramatic 2-1 win at Brentford on the final day, Leeds are believed to have told the Catalan club that they want a significant amount of money for the Brazilian wide player.

It had been reported that should Leeds have gone down Barcelona would have been able to acquire the player for around £21m.

However, the West Yorkshire club's survival means the Catalan giants are likely going to have to pay a significant amount more than that should they want the Brazilian.
