Hugo Sotelo to leave RC Celta de Vigo this summer

RC Celta de Vigo will part ways with midfielder Hugo Sotelo this summer. The decision follows the arrival of Febas, which has pushed Sotelo toward the exit. Sotelo’s contract runs until 2028, leaving the club to choose a loan or a sale. Sotelo, a native of Vigo, moved from regular starter to being excluded from the squad after Febas joined. The sporting director’s office is still weighing whether to loan him out or sell him outright. His status as a discard is now confirmed. The board meeting in A Sede has almost finalized the separation. Only the exact methodology and the destination remain to be decided. Potential destinations include clubs in Spain, Portugal or Italy. Sotelo will seek a new team in one of those leagues during the summer window. A transfer would likely generate a fee given his contract length. The move closes a chapter for both player and RC Celta de Vigo.
