A Malaga return for Gustavo Blanco Leschuk looking unlikely

Despite a lack of goals last campaign, Malaga would like to retain the services of striker Gustavo Blanco Leschuk.

The Argentinian has returned to parent club Shakhtar Donetsk but with just one year left on his contract there, the Ukrainian club is not looking to loan him out again, but seeking a permanent deal - something off limits for Malaga.
