Matías Vecino to rescind contract with RC Celta due to injury
Uruguayan midfielder Matías Vecino is set to rescind his contract with RC Celta due to ongoing physical issues. The player is scheduled to undergo knee surgery, which will require several months of recovery.
Vecino, who joined the Vigo-based club during the previous winter transfer window, reportedly agreed to waive a significant portion of his remaining salary to facilitate the mutual termination. This move is intended to help RC Celta free up squad space and financial capacity to register new players before the transfer market closes.
In a farewell message to fans, Vecino expressed his gratitude to the club, teammates, and staff, stating that while his time in Vigo was brief, it was intense and full of learning. He noted that it is painful to be unable to accompany the team during the current season.
