Leeds United midfielder Samu Saiz is set to travel to Spain to have a medical with La Liga side Getafe. 

Saiz is keen to return to his homeland with his pregnant wife and Leeds are resigned to losing the services of the 27-year-old.




He is poised to link up with Getafe on a six-month loan deal, with the Spanish top flight side having an option to transform the move into a permanent transfer in the summer.

Matters are moving quickly and, according to the Yorkshire Evening Post, he is now set to travel to Spain to have a medical with Getafe.
 


Whites boss Marcelo Bielsa has approved Saiz's departure and the move should go through when the transfer window re-opens on 1st January.

It is claimed Leeds value Saiz at around the £6m mark and it is not clear how much Getafe might pay to sign him permanently.

The midfielder is unhappy in England and desperate to complete a move back to his homeland.

Joining Getafe will also bring the added bonus of returning to his home city of Madrid.
