Not often I'm behind Leeds but, the best chance of getting him away even on loan is if they get up to the Prem.
Will this impact our spending if he’s allowed to leave on a free
Saudi - as a compulsory extra with KDB?It impacts us either way really, the damage is already done. He leaves on the cheap and we have to write it off as a loss, or we spend around £14m on wages and amortisation to keep him here doing nowt.
On a plus side though helps with the home grown quota. Glass half full me.It impacts us either way really, the damage is already done. He leaves on the cheap and we have to write it off as a loss, or we spend around £14m on wages and amortisation to keep him here doing nowt.

Any club would take a huge risk signing Phillips.Massive assumption that any of these players that fans are dying to palm off onto the Saudis actually want to go and live there.
Leeds is the only move that half makes sense but I also think assumptions are being made around how much Leeds would even want him back. Bielsa isn't there any more. Daniel Farke might have his own idea as to how he strengthen his squad and where his funds ought to be prioritised.
Think this whole situation screams undisclosed fee at this point. i.e. he leaves for next to nowt and gets a signing on fee to compensate for the drop in salary he'd be getting.
Christ knows how but he's still got 4 years here, so I can see a 2 year 'fee free' loan at Leeds with no option to send him backMassive assumption that any of these players that fans are dying to palm off onto the Saudis actually want to go and live there.

He is very broken and it will take a lot of hard work to get him back to any sort of level and add huge wages on top of that and I simply can't see us moving him on unless we take a huge financial hit.
