Largie Ramazani’s Leeds United exit now looks set in place.
Ever since picking up an injury last season, Ramazani has struggled for gametime at Leeds under Daniel Farke, despite impressing when given the chance.
Instead, Willy Gnonto has been the go-to option in the Premier League, with the Belgian absent from the squad when Leeds suffered a 5-0 defeat away to Arsenal.
It was then reported that Ramazani was closing in on a move to Valencia, with a new twist emerging at Elland Road.

Largie Ramazani could be on his way back to Leeds next summer
Leeds are in the hunt for a new attacker in the final few days of the window, though their ability to achieve that could hinge on whether Ramazani‘s exit is confirmed.

It was reported that Valencia had a buy option for Ramazani in the initial loan deal, but a new twist has suggested that this is not the case.
Hector Gomez has reported via X that the loan will be a straight one, with no ability to make it into a permanent deal for the La Liga club, meaning he will return to Leeds next summer.
Negotiations are said to be at a very advanced stage, with it looking all but nailed on that his exit will be confirmed in the next few days.
Leeds have lined up a move for Dilane Bakwa as a replacement, though the Frenchman is said not to be overly keen on a move to Elland Road.
Daniel Farke could be made to regret Largie Ramazani decision
Whenever Ramazani was given the chance, he shone for Leeds, and it was strange to see him afforded so few opportunities in the Championship last season.
The Belgian started just seven times for Leeds, and still managed to register six goals and two assists, with one goal in the FA Cup on top of that.
29 appearances
Seven starts
782 minutes played
97.7 minutes per goal contribution
On the bright side, a loan deal will give him that exposure to regular football and will allow him to return to Leeds with a point to prove next season.
