Malaga CF (Liga BBVA) is negotiating with a Chinese company to replace UNESCO as their shirt partner, announced Vicente Casado, the general director of the club, to the Andalusian newspaper Sur, on 30/04/2015. The UNESCO logo has been present on the centre of the shirt of the "Boquerones" since 2011.
