Bookmakers cast Leeds United relegation verdict after hectic summer transfer business

The bookmakers are predicting another season of struggle for Leeds United despite an impressive start to the transfer window. The Whites have so far brought in six players after losing Kalvin Phillips to Manchester City and Raphinha looks set to follow the Whites academy graduate on his way out the door.

Barcelona are reportedly on the verge of agreeing a £63million deal with Leeds for the Brazilian playmaker and Jesse Marsch's side will no doubt be looking to reinvest that money back into the squad. Leeds Live has used oddschecker to see what the bookmakers have made of the transfer business so far and it doesn't make good reading.

The Whites are the fourth favourites to go down, with Bet365, BoyleSports and UniBet placing 5/2 odds on Leeds to be relegated next season. It's perhaps not surprising to see given their survival on the final day of the season last time out.
