That is the view of finance expert Stefan Borson, who exclusively told the Championship club should be fine on the profit and sustainability (PSR) front despite being close to their allowable losses limit last season.
Leeds have already sold Archie Gray to Tottenham and Crysencio Summerville to West Ham this summer, with those deals earning the club around £55million.

Borson suggested those deals should ensure Leeds remain on the right side of the financial rules this season.
He told I think they were quite close to breaching for last season, but Archie Gray fixed that.
Clearly, with the sale of two or three players this season, they will be fine. They will make a big profit.
“We won’t know how close they were to breaching until we see their accounts.
One thing that’s difficult to forecast for a team that’s been relegated is their wage bill.
“They would have taken action when they got relegated on that wage bill that was quite big in the Premier League, but we don’t know how many players had clauses or how those loans worked.We will have to see what their wage bill was last year to have a view on where they got to on PSR for 2023-24.
