Stoke City's record signing Giannelli Imbula has been loaned out for a second consecutive season, this time to Rayo Vallecano.

Stoke City midfielder Giannelli Imbula will spend a second consecutive season out on loan after he joined LaLiga side Rayo Vallecano.

The 25-year-old made 28 appearances for Toulouse in Ligue 1 in 2017-18, scoring once as the club narrowly escaped relegation.

The former Marseille midfielder cost the Potters a club-record fee of £18.3 million when he joined from Porto on a five-and-a-half-year contract in 2016.
