Málaga faces unexpected offer for Darder

While Málaga waits for movements regarding the possible departure of Mexican goalkeeper Ochoa, it has encountered another front. Sergi Darder. Vicente Casado, from South American lands, has been talking with Olympique de Lyon about his transfer. The French team could be willing to offer up to 10 million euros for the midfielder from Artá. An option that was not expected and an interesting amount of money that could allow Málaga to incorporate another player, although not necessarily for this position, as they already have Recio, Camacho, and Fernando Tissone. Additionally, Javi Gracia has used Juanpi Añor as a midfielder. This is not the case for Espinho, whom the coach sees as a "second forward". Four years ago, Málaga paid this team, presided over by the controversial Aulas, eleven million euros in cash for Jeremy Toulalan.

On the other hand, the team has returned from its tour of South America where it played three games with mixed results, a loss, a draw, and a victory against Deportivo Cali, San Lorenzo, and Peñarol. The week is going to be hot.
