Leeds United's £123.1m transfer income compared to Europe's biggest sellers including Newcastle, Man Utd, Juventus & more

Georginio Rutter is the latest star to leave Leeds United after his £40m release clause was triggered by Brighton.

The cost of failing to achieve promotion is now being realised by Leeds United as first-team stars find top-flight football elsewhere. Georginio Rutter is the latest to leave, having seen his £40million release clause activated by Brighton and Hove Albion just hours before it was due to expire.

He joins Archie Gray and Crysencio Summerville in having a buy-out clause triggered by Premier League riches, while an £8m bid from Stade Rennais for ever-present midfielder Glen Kamara proved too tempting to turn down. Marc Roca, Diego Llorente and Charlie Cresswell also brought in seven-figure fees and supporters have been left wondering when money will be spent, with just £15m combined paid for Jayden Bogle and Joe Rodon.

With Georginio’s exit now confirmed, Leeds have stood to make an estimated £123.1m from player exits this summer, which according to Transfermarkt places them among the biggest sellers across Europe. Take a look below to see exactly where they rank...
