Leeds criticised over Raphinha deal as Newcastle now circle

Former West Ham star Frank McAvennie is critical of Leeds United's transfer work.

With Barcelona winger Raphinha being linked with a €50m move to Newcastle, it's been revealed Leeds will be cut out of any part of the deal.

Leeds failed to include any sell-on clause in the Brazil international's original move.

McAvennie said: "I am surprised that Leeds have not put a future sale clause for Raphinha.

"It's what a good sports director would have done."
