Leeds have announced midfielder Samuel Saiz will join LaLiga side Getafe on loan in January, with a view to a permanent deal in the summer.
Saiz travelled to Spain for a medical at the weekend and will not be returning to Yorkshire.
He will instead stay in the country before his stint with high-flying Getafe begins, Leeds confirmed on Monday.
The 27-year-old joined the Championship club from Huesca in 2017.
He scored nine goals in all competitions during an impressive first season with the club.
Saiz made 21 appearances for Leeds this campaign, scoring once.
The club are currently flying high in the Championship, sitting first by one point ahead of Norwich City after 22 games.
Marcelo Bielsa has guided Leeds to five wins from their last five games as they chase automatic promotion.

This is our year, automatic promotion and with a fantastic coach we can settle back into life in the Premier League where we belong.

Sad to see a good player go. We seem to be doing alright without him in the team so far though.

A big player on his day ! But the last 3 months his minds been else where possibly due to family problems so as a Leeds fan I wish him well thanks fr his service and I think we'll be ok without him !
