Not exactly keen on loaning out their disaffected youth prospect, Leipzig are reportedly only interested in a short-term arrangement with no purchase clause. This detail of the deal is reported by Spanish sports daily Diary AS, which also notes that the teenager will travel straight to Spain for a medical.
The La Liga club are keen to complete the deal and can potentially offer Moriba his desired playing time. AS further reports that the youngster is lined up as Danish midfielder Daniel Wass' replacement. The Dane is reportedly on his way to Athletico Madrid.
Update #Moriba: His loan to @valenciacf is getting closer. Several clubs are interested but #ValenciaCF has got the pole position. Leipzig is open, player & his management want the deal. Negotiations are ongoing. Plan: Loan until summer, restart at RB. @SkySports @philipphinze24
