Leeds United winger Largie Ramazani has already played for Valencia after sealing a season-long loan move to join up with Carlos Corberan.
It’s a La Liga return for Largie Ramazani, with Leeds United signing Ramazani for £10 million from UD Almeria last summer. He will spend the year with Valencia, and the Belgian will have two years left on his contract when he returns.
Daniel Farke has outlined his reasons to Largie Ramazani for his lack of game time of late already. His Leeds side wanted a recall clause with Valencia, and it was also reported that Leeds were pushing for a Ramazani loan fee to be added into the deal.
Even if they didn’t get their way with everything, Valencia agreed to no permanent clause for Ramazani. That is already good news for Leeds following his start to life at the Mestalla.

Largie Ramazani’s brother and agent takes swipe at Leeds
Ramazani has already spoken about his Leeds exit, but further comments have since emerged with Ramazani having a dig at Farke amid praise for the faith Corberan has shown in him already.
That’s because the 24-year-old came off the bench last night during a 3-0 win over Getafe in La Liga. It was 2-0 in the 87th minute when Ramazani entered the field for Luis Rioja, but he notched an assist in the 90+7th minute of the match.
He raced down the right and laid the ball across for Hugo Duro to add extra gloss to the scoreline in their third game of the campaign. It was Corberan’s first league win of the new season.
Ramazani’s brother and agent is Diamant Ramazani (Ramazani Mwanuke), and he posted a couple of Instagram stories regarding his brother and client’.’s debut

Daniel Farke’s words on Ramazani’s exit
Speaking in his weekly press conference ahead of Leeds’ game against Newcastle, Farke confirmed that Ramazani was to leave the club and he waxed lyrical about the Belgian.
The Leeds boss said: “You won’t hear one bad word from me right now about Largie, especially not once he is pretty close to leaving.
“I think this would lack class, and it’s also not my honest opinion because I think he’s an unbelievable player. He was always professional when he was here.
“He also showed his talent and his potential, especially in the last game days when we were celebrating, and he was such a great teammate.”
“He’s also a player who needs confidence and consistency in order to bring the best out of him. I think it’s also fair to say that when you play a lot in the opponent’s half, then he can work his magic and his creativity.
“He’s outstanding close to the opponent’s goal, because he always does the unexpected, and this is a big strength.”
“I think sometimes, for a newly promoted side, a few other attributes and skills are necessary. But you won’t hear one bad word for me for Largie. I feel pretty honoured and blessed that I was allowed to work with him for the whole year.”
Perhaps a successful loan could see him return to the fold and be involved with Leeds in a year’s time, with or without Farke.
