Deco labelled Raphinha as the ‘ice man’ on his Instagram story, as Leeds United secured their Premier League safety on the final day of the season.

The Portugal legend is the agent of the Leeds star, who opened the scoring for his side from the penalty spot against Brentford yesterday.

Jesse Marsch’s side were pegged back following a Sergi Canos header, but with Burnley losing at home to Newcastle, those from Yorkshire made sure of their safety by scoring a stoppage-time winner from Jack Harrison.

All in all, it was a day of drama, high tension, nerves and relief for all associated with Leeds.

And, after the game, Raphinha posted the following message to his fans on his Instagram.

WILL RAPHINHA STAY AT LEEDS UNITED BEYOND THIS SUMMER?

It’s going to be very interesting to see what happens with Raphinha’s future now that the season is over because there has been a lot of talk.

It doesn’t help matters that his agent is a former Barcelona player and rumours suggest that the Catalan-based club want to sign him up.

But if the Whites manage to keep hold of their wing wizard beyond this summer, then it will make Marsch’s life a lot easier for next season.

However, given all the noise and the amount of talk around the Brazil star, it wouldn’t be a surprise if he ends up walking out of the exit door at Elland Road.
