Hugo Mallo - Sends in 10 crosses in loss Mallo created one chance, sent in 10 crosses (two accurate), made two tackles (one won) and one clearance and was shown a yellow card during Saturday's 4-1 loss against Real Madrid...
Impact Mallo was one of Celta's few positive nets on the defensive line and that happened for his ability to go up the field and provide support offensively. His 10 crosses were most than he did in any match during the past campaign and the right-back could very well be a fantasy factor if more of these crosses racked up translate into assists.

Agustin Marchesin - Concedes four, saves PK in loss Marchesin made three saves, including a penalty, and conceded four goals during Saturday's 4-1 loss against Real Madrid.
Impact Marchesin couldn't do any better in any of the four goals allowed and still prevented an even bigger loss with a couple of huge saves, including a penalty from Eden Hazard during the closing stages of the match. This is not exactly a dream La Liga beginning for the goalkeeper as he was already beaten six times over two starts. He'll have lot of chances to bounce back though, starting with Friday's visit to Girona.

Iago Aspas - Converts PK in loss Aspas scored a penalty goal, created four chances and suffered two fouls during Saturday's 4-1 loss against Real Madrid.
Impact Aspas found the back of the net from the penalty spot in the 23rd minute and created a lot for his teammates but that wasn't enough for his side to have a better result against the reigning champs. Anyway, that's now back-to-back goals to start the season for the star attacker and he'll try to extend the streak during Friday's visit to Girona.

Goncalo Paciencia - Scores goal in draw Paciencia scored a goal in two shots (one on target) during Saturday's 2-2 draw against Espanyol.
Impact Paciencia exploded on the pitch for his first game of the 2022 season scoring a critical goal for Celta Vigo. With only five starts in the past two seasons, Paciencia was considered only in the substitute role due to lack in production. However, with a quick goal to start the season, Paciencia is aiming toward moving more permanently into the starting XI.
AUGUST 15, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Augusto Solari - Delivers assist in draw Solari generated an assist and created two chances during Saturday's 2-2 draw against Espanyol.
Impact Solari is proving to be viable in the midfield after gathering his first assist of the season in only 45 minutes of play. With only his third assist and eighth start of his career in Celta Vigo, Solari is stepping closer to a more permanent role in the starting XI for the 2022 season.
AUGUST 15, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Iago Aspas - Nets goal in draw Aspas finished with a goal on three shots (one on target) during Saturday's 2-2 draw against Espanyol.
Impact Aspas had a superb offensive performance scoring a goal and creating three opportunities. After coming off three straight seasons with over 14 goals, the forward is likely to play a pivotal role in the Celta Vigo starting XI.
AUGUST 15, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Agustin Marchesin - Concedes two in draw Marchesin conceded two goals during Saturday's 2-2 draw against Espanyol.
Impact Marchesin made zero saves and let in two goals for his first start on the Celta Vigo squad. After playing in just nine matches for FC Porto last season, Marchesin has a lot to prove at the goalkeeping position if he hopes to keep his position in the starting XI.

Joseph Aidoo - Fit for season Aidoo made the starting lineup for Saturday's friendly against Al Shabab.
Impact Aidoo had dealt with an ankle knock earlier in the preseason and with his recovery confirmed, he'll be ready to go for the coming campaign. With 30 starts from 32 appearances, Aidoo racked up his highest minutes total in three years during last season and he'll look to repeat the feat this time around.

Carles Perez - Heads to Celta on loan Perez joined Celta Vigo on loan from Roma on Monday.
Impact This move had picked up steam over the last week and he'll now return to Spain after spending much of the last three years in Italy. He never started more than six games in a league season but does have some experience in the Europa League, and an attacking mindset will bring a welcome reinforcement for a team short options after Brais Mendez departed. Still, it's worth waiting to see what kind of role Perez can carve out once the season gets under way.
AUGUST 8, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Fran Beltran - Plays in friendly Beltran played into the second half during Saturday's friendly against Al Shabab.
Impact Beltran overcame a muscular injury suffered earlier in the preseason and looks ready to go for the new campaign. He started in 31 of his 37 appearances last season and though he won't offer massive fantasy value, his name should be a consistent presence in the lineup.
AUGUST 8, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Franco Cervi - Plays in friendly Cervi started during Saturday's friendly against Al Shabab.
Impact Cervi had suffered a broken toe earlier in the preseason and he's now looking sharp ahead of the coming campaign. Heading into the opener against Espanyol on Saturday, Cervi could stake his claim to a regular starting role after scoring four goals and logging three assists in 33 appearances (21 starts) last season.
AUGUST 8, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Goncalo Paciencia - Joins Celta Paciencia joined Celta Vigo from Eintracht Frankfurt on Saturday. He's signed a three-year contract with his new club.
Impact Paciencia provides attacking reinforcements since Santi Mina is unlikely to be available any time soon, if ever again. During his time in Germany, Paciencia seldom acquired a regular role in the lineup and his best season came in 2019/2020 when he scored seven times and logged three assists in 23 appearances (15 starts). Now in Spain, he'll provide the second striker that Iago Aspas can partner with and this could see a solid uptick in Paciencia's value.

Barcelona clears more cap room, sells Mingueza to Celta
Barcelona has cleared more salary cap space by selling defender Óscar Mingueza to Celta VigoAUGUST 2, 2022 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Agustin Marchesin - Tranfers to Celta Marchesin transferred to Celta Vigo from FC Porto, his new club announced Monday.
Impact Marchesin's transfer comes to fruition after rumors became more concrete in recent weeks. He should the starting goalkeeper spot as Matias Dituro's loan expired and Ruben Blanco joined Marseille on loan, leaving a less desirable option in Ivan Villar as the lone first team player in the position. In terms of what we can expect from Marchesin, he'll benefit from the reinforcements of Oscar Mingueza and Unai Nunez and it'll be on him to keep up the same level of defensive work after his new team ranked joint-fourth in clean sheets last season.
AUGUST 1, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Oscar Mingueza - Transfers to Celta Mingueza has signed a four-year contract with Celta Vigo after transferring from Barcelona, the club announced Saturday.
Impact Mingueza had a breakout 2020/21 campaign in which he kept nine clean sheets in a combined 32 appearances (26 starts) across La Liga and the Champions League, but he saw significantly less playing time last season for Barcelona with the arrivals of Dani Alves and Eric Garcia in defense. The 23-year-old is now moving to Celta Vigo, where he will compete with Unai Nunez for a starting spot in central defense and can also provide depth for Javi Galan at right-back.
