The 23-year-old has been limited to just four Premier League starts since re-joining City in July after a season with Eredivisie side PSV.

He has not featured at all in the league since a 2-1 loss to Manchester United on 8 December (AEDT), being restricted to three cup appearances since then.

Leipzig confirmed on Saturday (AEDT) the defender will spend the remainder of 2019-2020 at the club, and it has been reported they have an option to make the move permanent for €30 million ($48.9 million).

Angelino originally joined City's academy in 2013 and spent time on loan with New York City, Girona, Real Mallorca and NAC Breda during his first spell at the club.

Leipzig is one point clear of Bayern Munich at the Bundesliga summit and has already brought in Dani Olmo from Dinamo Zagreb this month.

Meanwhile, 30-year-old midfielder Stefan Ilsanker and Matheus Cunha exited Leipzig on deadline day.

Ilsanker completed a move from to Eintracht Frankfurt on a two-and-a-half-year deal, while Cunha signed a long-term contract at Hertha Berlin.
