Fortunately for Malaga, the tight number of 18 professionals will not be reduced in this final section because Mikel Villanueva has decided to extend his stay in La Rosaleda until the end of the project.. A great relief for the club. The Venezuelan is the sixth to extend his stay until the season ends after Lombán, Luis Muñoz, Buenacasa, Sadiku and Aarón Ñíguez.
The club thanked in its official statement the commitment of the Venezuelan defense, who has proposals for American football in case his continuity in Malaga does not prosper for the next season.
Former baseball player, Mikel Villanueva was forged in the lower divisions of Malaga becoming an absolute international with Venezuela playing in the Third branch, Atlético Malagueño. Central or left-back, he has played on loan in Cádiz, Reus and Nástic de Tarragona.
