He was officially set for release from the club on 4 December 2017 as his performances and work rate did not live up to the expectations of experienced Spanish manager Manolo Jimenez.[9] He made only five official performances with the club at the first part of 2017–18 season and signed a three and a half-year contract with Swedish club Malmö FF for an undisclosed fee.[10][11]
