Manchester City defender joins RB Leipzig

 

RB Leipzig have confirmed the arrival of Manchester City left-back Angelino on loan for the remainder of the season.

 

City only re-signed Angelino from PSV for £5.3m last summer but the 23-year-old failed to make any impression in the Premier League.

 

Angelino dropped to fourth choice at left-back before completing a deadline day switch to Leipzig, who have an option to sign him permanently in the summer for €30m (£25.2m).

The former Spain Under-21 international is the second player brought in my Leipzig this month following Dani Olmo's arrival earlier in the window.

 

Angelino only made four league starts for City this season and a further two appearances from the bench.

 

City have lost five league games this season and two came with Angelino in the starting XI.

 

His last appearance in the competition came in their 2-1 defeat at home to Manchester United at the start of December.
