1) A Low Release Clause

Raphinha

According to Longari, Raphinha has a minimum release clause of €75m (£62.7m), which goes down to just €25m (£20.9m) if Leeds are relegated.

While it is still unlikely that Marcelo Bielsa’s side will go down this season, the existence of that extremely low buyout fee has attracted a whole host of clubs, including Chelsea.
