Malaga have confirmed that Brazilian attacker Julio Baptista will leave this summer.
The 31-year-old, who has been with the Spanish outfit for two-and-a-half years, is now expected to join Brazilian club Cruzeiro.
"Julio Cesar Baptista and Malaga reached an amicable agreement on Friday, July 19 to terminate the striker's contract. The club and the player came to an understanding following his last match against German side, Kaller SC," read a statement on the club's official website.
"Malaga would like to wish the Brazilian the best of luck for the future and his new career with Brazil's Cruzeiro."
Baptista scored four goals in 18 games last season.
