Does not feature on Monday Cervi recorded no stats in Monday's 1-0 victory over Getafe.
Assist off bench Cervi assisted once to go with one shot (zero on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and one chance created in Friday's 2-1 defeat to Betis.
Impact Finally, Cervi has an assist across Celta Vigo's 2023-24 season. It has not been like his 2022-23 campaign, when he recorded four assists, half of them as a substitute. At the very least, now that Cervi is healthy, he is expected to get regular opportunities to improve his output.
APRIL 12 • ROTOWIRE
Gets green light for weekend Cervi (hamstring) will be an option for Sunday's match against Girona after receiving the green light from the medical staff.
Impact Cervi has recovered from a torn hamstring muscle and will be an option for the squad again after missing the last two matches. He had previously started three of the four games played, where he will see competition with Luca de la Torre for playing time in the midfield.
JANUARY 26 • ROTOWIRE
Tears hamstring muscle Cervi tore a muscle in his hamstring and is set to remain out for the time being.
Impact Cervi is set to miss the next few matches with a hamstring injury. He had started just three of the last seven games played, totaling 13 tackles and nine crosses (zero accurate) in that span. This means that Luca de la Torre will see more playing time in the midfield during Cervi's absence.
JANUARY 9 • ROTOWIRE
Remains on bench Cervi was left on the bench for a second match in a row during Friday's loss to Girona.
Impact Cervi got back on the bench Friday, his second match in a row without a run out. Realistically the midfielder probably isn't quite fit yet, keeping him on the bench. When available Cervi started two of the first three matches in La Liga.

Makes the squad on Friday Cervi (thigh) is on the bench for Friday's match against Girona.
Impact Cervi is finally back in the squad after being listed on the bench on Friday. He previously has sat the last seven matches with the injury but will be happy to finally be back with the team on matchday. He could start to get starting nods in the future but will have to hold a bench spot for the time being after a long absence.
OCTOBER 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Called up Friday Cervi (thigh) was named to the traveling squad versus Girona on Friday.
Impact Cervi has been in the squad just twice over the club's last seven contests but has yet to get back onto the pitch. At this point, even once the midfielder is given the all-clear, he figures to be hard-pressed to secure regular minutes, much less a spot in the starting XI.
OCTOBER 26, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Not an option on Saturday Cervi (thigh) is out for Saturday's matchup against Atletico Madrid.
Impact Cervi will be missing another match after being left out of the team sheet for Saturday's match. He has now missed the past six games and will eye a return next week after making the squad list for this match.
OCTOBER 21, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Makes squad for Saturday Cervi (thigh) is in the squad for Saturday's match against Atletico Madrid.
Impact Cervi suffered a ruptured thigh tendon in late August, but he's finally able to return to action after a prolonged recovery, and be could be an option off the bench against Los Colchoneros.
OCTOBER 20, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Set for 5-6 week absence Cervi is expected to miss 5-6 weeks after suffering a ruptured thigh tendon, the team announced Tuesday.
Impact The term rupture is never followed by good news when it comes to injuries but the upcoming international break will help minimize the number of matches the midfielder should be expected to miss. In fact, based on the timeline provided by the club, Cervi likely won't be back until after the October international break, though that hasn't been officially announced by the club. With Cervi on the shelf, Manu Sanchez figures to serve as the left-back option.
AUGUST 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Forced off Cervi was forced off with an apparent injury during the first half of Friday's clash with Real Madrid.
Impact Cervi lasted 45 minutes before being forced off. The nature of the injury was unclear but Cervi appeared to stay down after a tackle before being helped off the pitch. Manu Sanchez came on to replace Cervi and could see a role in the starting XI if the injury holds Cervi out for a Sept. 1 trip to Almeria.
AUGUST 25, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Mostly bench option in 2023 Cervi recorded four assists in 36 La Liga appearances (21 starts) this season for Celta, though only five of those starts came after the end of January.
Impact Cervi was a regular starter either in midfield or on the left wing during the first half of the campaign, but the 29-year-old found himself relegated to the bench more often than not once Luca de la Torre established himself in the XI in late January. Cervi has one year left on his contract heading into the summer, and he'll aim to win back his starting spot if he remains in Vigo for next season.
JUNE 28, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Sends in six crosses versus Getafe Cervi had one shot on goal, created two chances, sent in six crosses (three accurate), made two interceptions and drew three fouls during Wednesday's 1-0 loss against Getafe.
Impact Cervi made his second consecutive start and, although not brilliant, was one of the few players from his side able to generate something on the attacking end. After a slow start of campaign and a long period as a substitute, the playmaker will hope to keep getting significant playing time during the final stretch of the season.
MAY 3, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Substituted in defeat Cervi generated 11 crosses (three accurate) and two corners in Sunday's 3-1 defeat to Villarreal.
Impact Cervi generated the most crosses of the game. He completed four dribbles and also made two key passes and one tackle. He has only assisted only twice in last 18 games and failed to score this season at all.

Assists winner off bench Cervi assisted once to go with five crosses (two accurate), two chances created and three corners in Wednesday's 1-0 victory over Elche.
Impact Cervi assisted the winning goal Wednesday, as his cross off a corner found Joseph Aidoo's head in the 90th minute. It was one of two chances he created in the match, to go with five crosses (two accurate), three corners, one won tackle and one interception in his 13 minutes of action.
APRIL 26, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Assists as substitute Cervi had an assist with his lone chance created during Saturday's 3-1 win over Espanyol.
Impact Cervi set up Carles Perez in the 82nd minute after entering the match as a substitute in the 69th. The assist was the third in 25 appearances for the midfielder tying him for the second most on the club.

Logs in five crosses Cervi recorded five crosses (zero accurate) and three corners in Friday's 1-0 loss to Mallorca.
Impact Cervi had a decent match with a pair of crosses and winning half of his tackles attempted on Friday. He is averaging 3.7 crosses a game with 24 (three accurate) in the last five contests.
JANUARY 21, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Launches four crosses Cervi logged in four crosses (one accurate), three corners and two interceptions in Thursday's 0-0 tie to Rayo Vallecano.
Impact Cervi was the work horse for Celta in the game but could not help the team get a goal in the net on Thursday. He is a diligent left winger with his tackling abilities and potential to send the ball to the attack. The Argentinian does not score often, but he is an important part of the team's starting lineup with an average of 3.3 crosses and 2.7 tackles a match.
NOVEMBER 10, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Logs assist in loss Cervi logged one assist from two chances created on six crosses (one accurate) during Saturday's 2-1 loss to Osasuna.
Impact Cervi put up one of his best offensive games of the season but also has been busy defensively, making 11 tackles in his last three appearances. In 12 appearances, Cervi finishes the first half of the 2022/23 campaign with two assists on 40 crosses, which aren't bad numbers but could be far better with Iago Aspas regularly scoring goals as he did Saturday.
NOVEMBER 5, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Logs five crosses in loss Cervi logged five crosses, put two shots off target and won three-of-three tackles during Sunday's 2-1 loss to Real Sociedad.
Impact Cervi hasn't completed the full 90 in three straight games but has still done well with 10 crosses provided and eight tackles made (six won) in that time. There's a noticeable lack of goals in this team whenever Iago Aspas can't find the net, though Cervi at least gets a consistent amount of touches in the effort to change that theme.
OCTOBER 16, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Sent off against Valencia Cervi was shown a straight red card in the 59th minute of Saturday's defeat against Valencia following a foul on Thierry Correia. He created a chance and won two of four tackles in...
Impact Cervi has started all six of Celta's La Liga matches this season, but he will be suspended for the Oct. 2 clash against Real Betis after getting sent off Sunday, and possibly for longer if the league deems it necessary. Carles Perez and Augusto Solari are options to replace him in midfield.
SEPTEMBER 18, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
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
Remains behind with broken toe Cervi (toe) didn't make the squad list for his club's preseason trip to the United States, it was announced Wednesday.
Impact Cervi has already been training as he recovers from a broken toe suffered in May but was left at the team facility in order to focus on making a proper recovery. Unless his name keeps popping up in the coming weeks, it shouldn't be surprising to see Cervi ready when the season does begin.
JULY 20, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Training with team in preseason Cervi (toe) is back with Celta Vigo for the start of preseason on Tuesday.
Impact Cervi suffered a fractured toe in May and missed his side's final few games of the season, but he seems set to begin preseason fit and available for Celta.
JULY 5, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Out with toe injury Cervi fractured his toe in Tuesday's defeat against Barcelona and will miss Celta's final two games of the season, the club announced Thursday.
Impact Cervi's first season in Spain has ended a bit early following this toe fracture, but the 27-year-old had a successful campaign overall with four goals and three assists in 33 La Liga appearances (21 starts) in a bit of a midfield/left wing hybrid role.
