Leeds United won't entertain offers for Liverpool target Raphinha until the next winter transfer window.
The Brazilian has been a huge hit for the Whites, bagging 15 goals and 11 assists from 54 appearances.
His current deal does not expire until June 2024, but it has been claimed that he won't negotiate a renewal.
Despite this, the club are unlikely to entertain bids this summer, and are prepared to keep him until the World Cup.
Raphinha has already made a big impression for Brazil, and a strong showing in Qatar could escalate his price tag.
The Whites are hoping for the same, and may only welcome offers for him during the next January transfer window.
Liverpool are among the long-term admirers of the former Rennes man, but it is unclear whether they will make a bid.
The Merseyside outfit made a huge outlay to sign Luis Diaz last month, and could resist pursuing another wide player.
There could still be plenty of transfer interest in Raphinha. Borussia Dortmund have been linked with his services.
