Celta Vigo Midfielder Hugo Sotelo Sidelined from First Team
Celta Vigo has announced that midfielder Hugo Sotelo will no longer be part of the first team dynamics, at least for the time being. Sotelo has been working with the reserve team since Monday, with the goal of gaining valuable experience.
High Demands for Renewal
Sotelo’s contract is set to expire on June 30, and the club has high hopes for his renewal. However, the demands placed on him have reportedly distracted him from his football growth, leading to the decision to sideline him from the first team.
Conditions for Return to First Team
If Sotelo wants to return to the first team, he will need to make significant changes and prove himself. Few people know him better than Claudio Giráldez, who has given him a leading role since his arrival in the first team.
Recent Performance
Sotelo has had a strong season, playing 17 matches for the first team, including 8 starts, and adding 718 minutes to his tally. He also started three Cup matches.
Club Hopes for Reconsideration
The club hopes that this measure will serve to make Sotelo reconsider his priorities. If not, he will start the season with Celta Fortuna, managed by Fredi, who began pre-season training this Monday.
