Malaga are spreading their net wide for a new goalkeeper signing.
While Elche No1 Willy Caballero remains their top target, Malaga have been frustrated in negotiations and are now considering alternatives.
Sevilla keeper Javi Varas and Universidad de Chile's Miguel Pinto are among the names under consideration.
Algeria's World Cup keeper Fawzi Chaouchi is another being discussed by Malaga at board level.
