Manchester City left-back Angelino has been loaned to Bundesliga leaders RB Leipzig until the end of the campaign.
The 23-year-old has been limited to just four Premier League starts since re-joining City in July following a season with Eredivisie side PSV.
He has not featured at all in the league since a 2-1 loss to Manchester United on December 7, being restricted to three cup appearances since then.
And with Pep Guardiola recovering manpower in defence recently, the Spaniard has been declared surplus to requirements.
"Angelino will spend the rest of the season on loan at Red Bull Leipzig," City signalled in a statement published on the club's official website.
