Kévin Marc-François Malaga (born 24 June 1987) is a French footballer who plays as a centre-back.
Born in Toulon, Malaga started his senior career playing for AJ Auxerre's B team in 2008, having previously played for the team's youth squads, and SC Toulon. He made a single league appearance for the full AJ Auxerre squad in 2010.
In 2011 Malaga switched to OGC Nice where he played twice for the senior squad and was captain of the reserve team.
On 13 July 2012, Malaga joined Football League One side Coventry City on a free transfer after his Nice contract had expired, having agreed a three-year deal.[3] Unable to fully break into the Coventry team, he had a brief loan spell at Nuneaton Town. His contract with Coventry City was terminated by mutual consent on 2 September 2013.[4]
