Leeds United could be set to be handed a summer transfer boost thanks to a clause they inserted into Elia Caprile's deal when the Italian goalkeeper left the Whites to join Serie B side Bari.
Caprile joined Leeds from Chievo back in January 2020 but failed to make a single appearance for the Whites during his two year spell with the Whites.
While he initially arrived on a three-year deal, Caprile departed Elland Road last summer, choosing instead to move back to Italy to link up with Bari, who he has impressed for this term.

Despite struggling for game time with the Whites, Caprile has featured heavily for Bari since his return to Italy, making 21 appearances in all competitions for the Serie B side.
His impressive performances have also earned him an Italy U21's cap too, as well as helping Bari to fourth place in the Italian second tier so far this term.
And with rumours linking him with a move to Napoli, Leeds could be set to benefit handsomely from any future move Caprile makes away from Bari.
The Whites included a 50 per cent sell on clause in the deal with Bari, meaning they stand to receive half of whatever transfer fee the Italian side sell the goalkeeper for.
While a January move looks to be out of the question, Italian publication Tutto Bari claim Bari want to keep ahold of Caprile in the coming window, with the club keen to maximise their profits in the summer.
It was unlikely the 21-year-old was ever going to break into the Whites first team during his time at Elland Road but the inclusion of a 50 per cent sell on clause shows Leeds hedged their bets on Caprile becoming a decent player.
