Ilaix Moriba is desperate to depart RB Leipzig in January just half a year after his move from FC Barcelona, according to Bild.

The 18-year-old central midfielder is unhappy with his lack of playing time and is expressing his frustration through his behavior and listless training performances, per the report.

Since Leipzig don't want a player in the squad, who is unhappy, Moriba could be sent out on loan in January.

Bild doesn't mention any interested clubs, but claims a return to Barcelona is not an option.

Leipzig paid €16 million to sign Moriba from Barcelona last summer. Since then, he has featured just six times for 'Die Roten Bullen'.
