Liverpool are considering selling Salah to fund a move for MBappé. If they do they are supposedly looking at Raphiniha as Salahs replacement.

Smells like nothing more than clickbait speculation by the media re Raphinia, he is a very good player so not surprised by the clickbait.
I completely admire Brighton for their steadfast refusal to sell BW last summer and Leeds should follow suit with this steely determined policy in not selling their very best players
There should be zero chance that Leeds would even entertain the notion of selling/ agreeing to sell KP or Raphinia this summer.
And if Leeds can finish in the top 6 next season 2021/ 22 it will give us even more leverage again in keeping our very best players.

Sly spurts and spews lazy rubbish again.

Selling salah to fund mbappe, but getting Raph? I don’t understand?
06 Feb 2021 17:59:19
Dl you sell Salah (let's say £100m but who really knows) , buy Raphiniha for £30m, or around there, that still leaves you £70m towards MBappé.
As for should we sell? No. But let's be fair KP won't leave unless we want him to or we go back down. Raphiniha doesn't have the same connections, if he wants a move he will force one (not that I think he does) also it's very possible he has a release clause for if a champ league club bids for him so it might be out of our hands.

Difference being if Leeds are offered 35-40 mill for Raph chances are Radz would sell I am afraid,
Be heart breaking too lose him.
06 Feb 2021 19:52:04
Sell Salah to fund Mbappe, surely Mbappe would be Salahs replacement, plus think Mbappe would cost more than they'd get for Salah.
06 Feb 2021 20:04:06
Disagree entirely Chris
Radz and equally importantly now Marathe and the SF49ers with almost half ownership are all shrewd operators
Leeds now importantly with much, much larger EPL annual income coming into the club
and there is no way on earth they will want nor feel any ( financial) need to sell their star player, certainly not after just one season and certainly not for a very undervalued £35 to £40 million. If Salah is with £100 million, for me Raphinia is already an £80 million player ( exactly what Man U paid for Maguire) .
He will be worth even more at the end of next season when the challenge to keep him at Leeds may actually start to arise, but a huge transfer fee will be received for him.

Also with it increasingly very likely that crowds will be back next season giving Leeds United even more significant income
there is no way that Radz and Marathe would even contemplate to commit a very big PR own goal in selling star player Raphinia this summer
after Raph having played just one season for Leeds
and he having not even played in front of the Leeds United supporters at Elland Road.

Rich MBappé would probably be closer to £200m, think that's why they would need to sell a couple to raise funds. Guessing he would be brought in as a forward rather than a winger.
06 Feb 2021 23:04:01
Every player has a price but Radz would have to have a hole in his head to sell Raph. I can’t see it happening after one season, as Trump would say â€Fake Newsâ€.

Straight swap I reckon. Salad for raph. Although I’m not sure I’d want t sell raph. He is only going to get better and better. Special talent and has hit the ground running and in the best league in the world he is shining.

Salah wants to go to Real Madrid one day so definitely possible. At the end of the season Raph would still have 2 years left on his deal so wouldn't be cheap if he were to leave.
07 Feb 2021 09:42:06
Raph Would have at least 3 years left on his deak Alf : he signed a 4 year deal.
07 Feb 2021 11:33:10
Good stuff. Ortas best signing so far. Only Raph and Meslier have passed muster for me so far.
