Swansea City FC transfer news: Borja Baston set for loan move to Malaga

Malaga have agreed to sign Swansea City striker Borja Baston on loan for the season, according to reports in Spain.

The 24-year-old has endured a difficult time since arriving in Wales for a club record fee of £15.5m from Atletico Madrid last summer, scoring only once.

The Spaniard almost left Swansea in January to join Villarreal on loan, but a deal collapsed during the final stages of talks.

But now, according to COPE Malaga, Baston has agreed to join Malaga for the new season.

The striker is now undergoing a medical in Spain, while he is also said to already be on the hunt for a new house.
