How much Leeds could earn if Largie Ramazani's Burnley loan becomes permanent
Largie Ramazani has departed Leeds United to join Burnley on loan.
The Whites confirmed the Belgian's temporary exit on Tuesday, as he joined the Championship side.
He has flopped at Elland Road, struggling to make an impression on Daniel Farke.
Ramazani has made 31 appearances for the Peacocks, with seven goals and two assists in that time.
The sizeable amount that the Whites could earn has been revealed in a new update.

What are the figures involved in Largie Ramazani's Leeds exit?
Ramazani's nightmare in LS11 is nearing the end, with the Clarets having the option to make the deal permanent.
The Athletic's Beren Cross shared on Tuesday that initial talks over a full-time exit led to a loan with an "achievable" appearance-based clause.
If that is triggered, it will turn the deal into a permanent one, with Nicky Hayen's side paying a multi-million premium.
The figures that Leeds could earn are £6.5million, which could rise to £8.5m if potential add-ons are reached.
That would mean that the Yorkshire outfit have recouped most of the £10m that they spent on the former Almeria man.
Why Leeds may regret letting Ramazani leave
Leeds are still looking for attackers to bolster Farke’s squad, so it could be a mistake to let Ramazani leave.
While he has never really endeared himself to the manager, the Peacocks risk leaving themselves short.
That is especially true if they also allow Wilfried Gnonto to join Fiorentina, as they would be losing two wingers.
The Whites were in the mix for Chelsea’s Mykhailo Mudryk, but he is set to join Tottenham after they hijacked the LS11 outfit’s talks with the Blues.
Igor Paixao was also a target, but he is set to stay in France with Marseille, and not join the Thorp Arch side.
That means that the recruitment team will be scrambling to find alternatives on the last day of the market, and there is no guarantee that they are successful.
