Leeds United have been handed a major blow ahead of Liverpool clash as Raphinha will be unavailable to be selected.
As
The Times claim, the Whites have been informed by FIFA they cannot play the Brazilian until Wednesday and will risk possible sanctions if they do not abide by this sanction.
The problem occurred after six Premier League clubs refused to release their Brazilian players for the September international break due to quarantine fears on their return from South America.
And the Brazil Football Association has asked FIFA to enforce rules which will prevent the players in question from featuring for their club sides in the Premier League this weekend.
As a result, Leeds will be without Raphinha at Elland Road on Sunday, while visitors Liverpool will be without Alisson, Fabinho and Roberto Firmino.
