After wearing the Celtica jersey but not debuting in an official match, the sports management under Marco Garcés will try to bring the Mexican back to European countries.
What they didn't do 18 years ago, they will try to do in this winter market so that Carlos Vela finally officially plays for RC Celta. It was in the winter window of 2006 when the Mexican striker was 17 years old. He signed with the Galician side on a loan granted by Arsenal. However, due to a lack of extra EU quotas, he never made his debut.
UD Salamanca, Osasuna and even more Real Sociedad if they were lucky enough to enjoy the Manito striker's goalscoring chances. In fact, the Txuri Urdin club also marked Vela's return to LaLiga. But Celta is already in the process of negotiating directly with the player as he now enters free agency.
Despite being a free transfer, signing Carlos Vela seems difficult for Celta
The Central American attacker has been a free agent since December 31 last year after ending his contract with LAFC. He spent six seasons with the American club, during which he won five titles and nine individual awards for his great performances. Sources close to the 34-year-old striker speak of a disagreement over the contract extension.
The fact is that Carlos Vela is free and is listening to offers from all incoming teams. Those from Liga MX did it, of course, some from Saudi Arabia and in Spain, with Team Celtiña and Team San Sebastian pushing. So staying in free agency doesn't release him from an easy signing, because it's exactly the opposite.
Celta is exhausting its resources trying to sign Carlos Vela
At 35 years old, the center forward still plays a role in Europe and not in any league. Currently, both Real Sociedad and the Galician club are interesting destinations for the Mexican striker.. However, at this point in his sporting career, the Bomber (as he is known in his country) has other interests that do not involve returning to the elite.
Some claim that Carlos Vela is looking for a club to retire with, an option that seems very obvious. In this way, the Chivas de Guadalajara apply to take the player back. But the call from Arabia is laden with a lot of money that the Manito doesn't look at with evil eyes. Be that as it may, signing the Aztec goalscorer will be complicated for RC Celta.
