LEEDS UNITED star Raphinha cast an emotional figure after the 1-1 draw against Brighton – despite his side moving out of the relegation zone.

Leeds rescued a point in injury time against Brighton at Elland Road thanks to Pascal Struijk’s 92nd-minute header.

The result moved The Whites out of the relegation zone ahead of Burnley, who lost in controversial fashion to Tottenham in Sunday’s early kick-off.

But Raphinha cast a dejected figure as he slumped against the post following the club’s final home game of the season.

He did then also cast a smile when England midfielder Kalvin Phillips brought over a piece of cardboard which said: ‘Raphinha make me smile’ with a Brazilian flag and heart drawn on.

He was then helped up by Phillips and walked away with the poster under his arm.

Raphinha has been linked with a move away from the club for a large portion of the season.

A number of clubs are said to be interested in his services this summer.

West Ham and Barcelona are both linked, along with others including Arsenal, Chelsea, and Bayern.

But with Leeds teetering on the brink of relegation, his future could well depend on the outcome of the battle to beat the drop.

The Brazilian has scored ten goals and added three assists in 34 Prem games this season.

And without these goal contributions Leeds would be 16 points worse off.

Whether this is his last game at Elland Road with Leeds remains to be seen, but nonetheless his talents would be sorely missed.
