Raphinha's impending departure from Elland Road has left boxing bombshell Ebanie Bridges heartbroken.
Chelsea appear to have fended off competition from Arsenal and Barcelona in their pursuit of the Brazilian for £55 million. Raphinha could be the second key player to depart Leeds this summer, with Kalvin Phillips set to join Manchester City.
But the news that the Blonde Bomber could be leaving Leeds has broken his heart. "Now Raph," Bridges tweeted, along with a broken heart emoji and a gif of a man crying in bed.
Raphinha was instrumental in Leeds United's Premier League survival last season, despite Marcelo Bielsa's dismissal.
After helping Yorkshire retain their place in England's top flight, the Brazilian had his heart set on a move to Catalonia. However, due to the Blaugrana's current financial situation, the Blaugrana were unable to match Leeds' valuation.
Chelsea could now swoop in and match Leeds' asking price, which Arsenal had been attempting to lower with multiple offers.
