Raphinha has been left out of Leeds United's squad for their pre-season tour of Australia.

The Brazil winger has been the subject of a bid from Arsenal and interest from Barcelona and Chelsea.

Leeds fly out to the Gold Coast on Sunday for games against Aston Villa and Brisbane Roar, before heading to Perth to face Crystal Palace.

The club would be looking for more than £50m for Raphinha, who they signed from Rennes for £17m two years ago.

Meanwhile, all six of the club's new signings are included in the pre-season squad, along with 16-year-old Archie Gray who is the grandson and son of former Scotland internationals Frank Gray and Andy Gray.

Defender Junior Firpo has a knock and is absent from the squad.
