According to tubasket.com, Aito Reneses wants Ricky Rubio to play for him again, this time in Malaga. The spanish superstar has a contract with Badalona until 2011 and a very high buy-out clause in his contract that comes up to 6 million euros if he wants to play in the NBA.
So Malaga will step in the game and try to acquire Ricky Rubio. Reneses' plan is to convince Rubio to play 2 more seasons in Europe before trying his luck in the NBA in 2011. According to the article this shows how smaller becomes the chance of Carlos Cabezas' staying in Malaga; Cabezas wasn't very happy with the renewal offers that were made.
Every European team has interest in Rubio, but I suppose that he'll fly to US in 2 years. And no team will take the risk to sign him to a one-year contract, considering his high buyout option.
