Samuel Saiz, on loan at Getafe from Leeds United, is reportedly wanted by Valencia.

Samuel Saiz left Leeds United for Getafe in Spain on loan for until the end of the season in the January transfer window.

Saiz, who can operate as an attacking midfielder or as a forward, was superb for Leeds during his time at Elland Road, and many fans of the Whites were disappointed to see him leave.

The 28-year-old made 15 starts and four substitute appearances in the Championship for Leeds this season before his January loan exit, providing four assists in the process, according to WhoScored.

The former Real Madrid prospect, though, has failed to make a huge impact at Getafe, as he has made only two starts and four substitute appearances in La Liga, according to WhoScored.

Getafe manager Jose Bordalas has said that no decision has been made on the future of Saiz.

According to BBC Sport, Getafe have the option to make the deal permanent in the summer of 2019.

Interestingly, Valencia are reported to be interested in securing the services of the Spaniard, with El Gol Digital claiming that Los Che are keen to hold talks with Leeds (click here to read more).

InsideFutbol quotes Bordalas as saying about Saiz: “Many news [items] which are not real are being released. Nor is there any decision on Samu Saiz.”
