Leeds United are not the only club to have had a busy transfer window this summer.

More than £1.5 billion has changed hands in the business of exchanging players this summer, which smashes the 2017’s record for a gross summer spend set at £1.43 billion.

United have played their part, netting close to £100 million for the dual sales of former stars Kalvin Phillips and Raphinha to Manchester City and Barcelona respectively.
