Malaga are on the verge of signing midfielder Borja Valero from Villarreal, AS understands.
Los Boquerones are searching for reinforcements after clinching the final Champions League berth and they are stepping up their interest in the experienced midfielder.
The 27-year-old has been one of just a few bright spots in an otherwise disappointing season for the Yellow Submarine which saw the club get relegated to Segunda.
Villarreal chiefs are aware they will not be able to hold on to their prized asset and are ready to negotiate the sale.
According to AS, Malaga have emerged as the favourites for the player’s signature and they are eager to wrap up the deal as soon as possible so as to win the race with other interested clubs.
Los Boquerones have been following the midfielder for a while now and they are prepared to delve deep into their pockets to get the player who can help them stay competitive in both Spain and Europe.
