Pedro 'Pedrito' Rodríguez Ledesma is set to join Primera newcomers Málaga on loan from FC Barcelona in time for the new season...
The 21-year-old attacker has played a prominent role in the blaugrana this pre-season, scoring against Hibernian and Red Bull New York and taking part against Boca Juniors in the Gamper Trophy.
The player, who took part in the second half of Barcelona's win over Boca Juniors last night, is nonetheless thought to be a bit-part member of Pep Guardiola's squad and thus a prime candidate to be loaned out.
Thus Málaga, eager to strengthen their forward line, have displayed an interest in the diminutive Canarian.
A product of the Barcelona youth system, Pedrito rose to prominence with Barcelona B last season as he hit six goals in the Segunda B, making two Liga appearances for the first team along the way.
Having missed out on the signature of Ewerthon, Málaga are determined to find an attacking solution quickly. With only a few forwards on the books and a small number of out-and-out forwards - Salva Ballesta perhaps chief amongst them - Pedro would also add some youthful exuberance to the 'anchovies'.
Technical director Ricardo Rodríguez of Málaga is expected to seek to finalise the deal in the coming hours.
