DONE DEAL: Esteban Granero leaves Espanyol for Marbella

Veteran Spanish midfielder Esteban Granero brought his two-and-a-half-year spell at Espanyol to an end on Thursday.

He has agreed to rescind his contract, which has enabled him to join Segunda Division B side Marbella on a free.

The 32-year-old's contract was set to expire on June 30, but he came to an agreement with Espanyol to terminate it six months early as the club needed to create space in their squad after the signings of Raul de Tomas, Leandro Cabrera and Adri Embarba.

Now, Granero will begin a new adventure in the Segunda B, having penned a deal with Marbella until June 2021. He has been brought in as the Andalusians look to achieve promotion to LaLiga SmartBank this season.
