The Spaniard has been out for six games through suspension.
Leeds United take on Derby County in the Championship tomorrow night and it could prove a vital game in their flagging hopes of making the play-offs this season.
A poor run of form has seen them slip down the table and sack former boss Thomas Christiansen – with former Barnsley boss Paul Heckingbottom coming in to take his place.
Leeds’ run has not been helped by a number of key absences, including many by way of suspension.
One such player was Spanish playmaker Samuel Saiz. The summer signing was handed a six-game penalty for spitting during the FA Cup loss at Newport County.
He was in excellent form for Leeds prior to the suspension and his return will be a massive boost for the club ahead of the clash with promotion chasing Derby County.
Without Saiz the West Yorkshire side have struggled to find the creativity in the final third to punish teams and with Pierre-Michel Lasogga now in form they are hoping he and Saiz can develop an understanding in front of goal that can revive Leeds’ promotion hopes.
If you need proof at how excited Leeds fans are about Saiz’s imminent return, then look no further than on Twitter…
