Finally: Leeds agree to sell Rafinha to Barcelona

 
Leeds United boss Jesse Marsh has confirmed that the club is in talks with Barcelona to sell their striker star Rafinha, and expects the deal to move in the next day or two.
Leeds has accepted Barcelona's official offer for the 25-year-old with an initial value of 58 million euros, which could rise to 68 million euros with additions. Chelsea’s bid for the Brazil international was also accepted at the end of last month, but the striker, who was left out of Leeds' pre-season tour, is now ready to travel to Spain to fulfill his dream of wearing the Barcelona shirt.
Marsh previously revealed that there was "urgency" from Rafinha to determine his future, and the American has since stated that the player is "committed" to a move from West Yorkshire to Catalonia.
Rafinha has been an invaluable asset to Leeds since joining the club from Rennes in the summer of 2020, scoring 17 goals and assisting 12 in 67 appearances in all competitions, including 11 in the Premier League last season.
The Catalan giants have long been linked with a summer swoop for the Whites forward, which is widely expected to head for the Elland Road exit door in the coming weeks.
