Guinean midfielder Ilaix Moriba set for RB Leipzig exit amid uncertain future

Ilaix Moriba is unlikely to return to RB Leipzig, with the German club reportedly excluding him from their future plans.

The Guinean midfielder, currently on loan at Celta Vigo, faces another uncertain summer as reports suggest a different Spanish club has expressed interest in securing his services.

A career in search of stability

Since leaving Barcelona in the summer of 2021, Moriba has struggled to settle at a single club.

Signed by RB Leipzig with high expectations, he has yet to establish himself in the Bundesliga.

The German side has repeatedly sent him out on loan, and his current spell at Celta Vigo has done little to convince Leipzig of his long-term value.

Despite making 26 appearances this season and providing two assists, Celta Vigo is not expected to trigger the option to make his loan move permanent.

With Leipzig also keen to offload him, Moriba will need to find a new club ahead of the 2024/25 campaign.

Interest from Spain

With his future in Germany looking increasingly unlikely, reports suggest that Deportivo Alavés have emerged as a potential destination.

The La Liga side is believed to be in discussions with Moriba’s representatives over a possible transfer.

While negotiations are ongoing, his current valuation of €4 million could make him an affordable option for the Spanish club.

RB Leipzig recently held internal discussions about their on-loan players, with Moriba reportedly among those deemed surplus to requirements.

His performances during loan spells have failed to impress the Leipzig management, further reinforcing their decision to part ways with him.

A critical point in his career

Despite his struggles, Moriba remains a highly regarded talent with room to develop.

However, football analyst Edouard Akontom believes it is time for the Guinean international to find stability.

“It is high time for Ilaix Moriba to stabilize,” he said, stressing the importance of securing a long-term future at a club where he can play regularly and develop.

As the summer transfer window approaches, Moriba’s future remains uncertain.

If Deportivo Alavés can reach an agreement, he may finally find the consistent playing time he has been missing since leaving Barcelona. For now, all eyes are on his next move as he prepares for a decisive chapter in his career.
