Raul could be heading back to Spain this summer as Malaga is interested in the Schalke striker.
Sport reports that the La Liga club, who signed Ruud van Nistelrooy from Hamburg this summer, is eager to hold further dialogue with the former Spain international.
Raul was sensational for Schalke during his maiden season last term and he has allegedly already spoken with Malaga boss Manuel Pellegrini and former Real Madrid player Fernando Hierro about a move.
Hierro played alongside Raul for years at the Bernabeu where they enjoyed great success together, and he could be the catalyst to push the move further as he tries to convince the veteran.
The forward, 34, is contracted to Schalke until 2012, and recently said he would respect his deal there.
However, a top contract offer from Malaga, who is backed by businessman Sheik Al Thani, could turn his head back towards Spain.
Russian club Anzhi Makhachkala and Premier League side Blackburn Rovers have also been linked with the former Real Madrid legend.
