Deportivo La Coruna coach Gaizka Garitano has confirmed they're set to sign Gael Kakuta.
The former Chelsea attacker has been playing for Hebei Fortune China, but will be allowed to join Depor.
"He is a player that I like. I knew him from before and he had a good season with Rayo," said Garitano.
"Now we have to see how he is, as long as you do not see him in a short time ... but I know him and he's a player that can give us many things."
The Frenchman, who will be handed over by Hebei Fortune, will be the second winter signing after the arrival of Ola John.
