RC Celta player departures

Overview

RC Celta is undergoing roster changes involving the departures of Matías Vecino and Manu Fernández.

Uruguayan midfielder Matías Vecino reached a mutual agreement to terminate his contract, which was originally scheduled to run until June 2027. Vecino, 35, cited physical issues encountered during pre-season as a factor in his departure and is scheduled to undergo knee surgery. To facilitate the termination and help the club free up financial capacity to register new players, Vecino reportedly agreed to waive a significant portion of his remaining salary.

Additionally, defender Manu Fernández, a product of Celta’s youth academy, is transferring to Cádiz CF on a three-season deal. The agreement includes a buy-back option for Celta, allowing them to reacquire the player at the end of the current season or during the 2027/2028 campaign.
