Spanish club Malaga have confirmed the signing of Super Eagles striker Brown Ideye, and the former Ocean Boys' forward is expected to be with the team for six months.
The 29-year-old player has been in Spain since last week after leaving Chinese Super League side Tianjin Teda.
Ideye lost his first team spot at Tianjin Teda and was demoted to the B team of the club following the signing of Ghanaian winger Frank Acheampong.
A move to Malaga will help him regain his spot in the Nigeria national team ahead of the start of preparations for the World Cup in Russia later in the year.
