Former Osasuna boss Javi Gracia has been appointed as the new head coach of Malaga.
The Spaniard stepped down from his position with Osasuna at the end of the 2013-14 season after the Pamplona outfit were relegated from La Liga.
Malaga, meanwhile, had been without a manager after Bernd Schuster departed earlier this month despite signing a five-year deal last summer.
"Malaga football club and coach Javier Gracia Carlos (Pamplona, 05.01.1970) have reached an agreement for the later to oversee the club's technical responsibilities for the next two seasons," read an official statement from Malaga.
"Javier Gracia was a player in the Primera Division with Real Valladolid, Villarreal and Real Sociedad and, as a coach, he led Cadiz CF in 2008-09 and Almeria in 20012-13 to promotion, and has European competition experience, having coached in Greece with Olympiakos Volou in 2011.
"The new Malaga manager will be presented on Tuesday, June 3 at 12.30 local time in the press room at the Estadio La Rosaleda."
Malaga finished 11th in La Liga last season.
