Malaga sign Pablo Perez

Spanish outfit Malaga have reached an agreement with Newell's Old Boys for the signing of talented midfielder Pablo Perez.

The 28-year-old has not officially signed a contract with the La Liga side, but will put pen to paper on Tuesday should he pass a medical.

Malaga have already filled their quota of foreign players for this season, but it is believed that the paperwork for Perez to become a European citizen is close to being completed.

Perez, who will sign a three-year contract at Malaga and cost in the region of £750,000, has been with Newell's since 2006.
