Raphinha is now at Leeds United undergoing a medical ahead of his expected move, the Telegraph say (2:14pm).

Raphinha only played for Rennes yesterday and he scored in their 2-2 draw with Reims, despite heavy speculation linking him with Leeds.

Marcelo Bielsa’s side were quick to act after that game to finalise the transfer.

And the deal is now entering the final stages, as the transfer deadline edges closer.

Raphinha is said to be at Leeds right now, with the Brazilian fully expected to be announced as a Whites player soon.

Raphinha is a hugely exciting addition for Leeds, as he has been in impressive form in Ligue 1.

But he does face a fight to earn a spot in Leeds’s team, as the likes of Helder Costa, Ian Poveda and Jack Harrison have all been in excellent form this term.
