Ilaix Moriba is returning for the season on loan to Valencia, as reported by Fabrizio Romano. The 19-year-old made 18 appearances on loan at the La Liga club last year, but was pegged to stay at Leipzig for this upcoming season.

Amongst a crowded midfield group, Moriba was struggling to find a way into Leipzig's squad to begin the campaign. Moriba is a Barcelona youth academy product, who's contract expires in 2026.

Crystal Palace were also interested in his services this summer.
