Report: Leeds United tell Udinese they’re signing Raphinha, they consider Rodrigo de Paul deal off

Leeds United are expected to complete some signings today before the transfer window shuts, but it appears that a move for Udinese midfielder Rodrigo de Paul is no longer on the cards.

According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, the Elland Road outfit consider a deal for the Argentine off and have told the Serie A outfit that they are signing Rennes’ attacking midfielder Raphinha instead.

Udinese and Leeds couldn’t reach an agreement over a transfer fee for De Paul, but that hasn’t been the case in talks between them and the French side.
