Celta Vigo has officially announced the extension of their contract with veteran forward Iago Aspas. The 37-year-old Spanish striker has committed his future to the club by signing a new deal that will keep him at Balaídos until 2026.
Aspas, a product of Celta’s youth academy, briefly left the club in 2013 for stints with Liverpool and Sevilla. However, he made a triumphant return to his boyhood club in 2015 and has since become an integral part of the team.
This season, Aspas has already made a significant impact, featuring in 16 matches across all competitions. His contributions have been crucial, with the experienced forward netting 6 goals and providing 3 assists for his teammates.
The contract extension demonstrates Celta Vigo’s faith in Aspas’s continued ability to perform at the highest level, despite his advancing years. It also highlights the strong bond between the player and the club where he began his professional career.
