Training with team in preseason Cervi (toe) is back with Celta Vigo for the start of preseason on Tuesday.
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.

Fourth goal of season Cervi scored a goal with his lone shot while crossing four times inaccurately during Saturday's 4-0 win over Deportivo Alaves.
Impact Cervi found the back of the net in the 57th minute scoring Celta's third goal. The goal was the fourth of the season for the midfielder while his four crosses were the second highest total on the team in the win.

Takes two shots in draw Cervi took two shots (one on goal), provided three crosses (one accurate) and won three-of-three tackles during Sunday's 1-1 draw with Granada.
Impact Cervi has started four straight matches but lasted for less minutes in each successive contest. His numbers are decent, but lack the luster needed for one that should add a little more to the attack. Up next is a visit from Deportivo Alaves, which have conceded the joint second-most goals in the league.

Suspended against Betis Cervi will miss Sunday's clash against Betis with a suspension for yellow card accumulation.
Impact Cervi wasn't even on the pitch when he picked up his fifth booking of the season against Villarreal last weekend as he was dealing with a foot injury, but he will be suspended for Sunday's match all the same. Nolito could continue on the left wing in his absence for the game.

Assists Sunday Cervi provided one assist on one chance created during Sunday's 4-3 win over Mallorca.
Impact Cervi assisted during Sunday's 4-3 win, his third assist of the season. The midfielder has carved out a starting role recently, and is worth considering in all fantasy formats. Next up for Cervi is a Saturday clash with Villarreal where he will start once again.
MARCH 6, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Scores in draw Cervi scored one goal from two shots (two on goal), created one chance from four crosses and won four-of-five tackles during Monday's 1-1 draw with Levante.
Impact Cervi was one of the most productive players for his side in a match where usual star Iago Aspas didn't have as much to offer. With two goals and one assist in his last five matches, Cervi is starting to settle in Vigo after a tough opening to the season. Up next is a trip to Atletico Madrid, which may not be as easy a matchup as the following week against Mallorca.

Makes three tackles in draw Cervi registered one off-target shot, one inaccurate cross, three tackles (two won) and a yellow card in Saturday's 0-0 draw at Cadiz.
Impact Cervi co-led his side in tackles in the road draw, despite subbing off during halftime. The midfielder also received his third yellow card of the season, though. He will now face Levante on Monday.

Contributes to goal again Cervi scored one goal during a 2-2 draw Saturday against Sevilla.
Impact Celta Vigo and Osasuna competed against each other on Jan. 19. Cervi logged his first La Liga assist of the year en route to Celta's 2-0 win. Impressively, he did better against Sevilla three days later. Cervi recorded his second goal of the 2021-22 La Liga on Saturday.

Draws PK, makes six tackles in win Cervi sent in three inaccurate crosses, made six tackles (three won), drew four fouls, including a penalty, and was shown a yellow card during Sunday's 2-0 win over Betis.
Impact Cervi not only had his usual offensive input, suffering the penalty that led to his side's first goal, but this time he also made several defensive contributions, highlighted by his season-high six tackles. The midfielder started the last four matches for Celta and everything indicated that he'll remain in the lineup for Saturday's visit to Real Sociedad.
JANUARY 3, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Logs six crosses in draw Cervi created one chance from six crosses (zero accurate) and won two-of-five tackles during Friday's scoreless draw with Mallorca.
Impact Cervi has done well with 11 crosses, six corners and seven tackles over his last two appearances (both starts). With the front line struggling with injuries and Cervi earning some responsibility on set pieces, he could be worth some attention in the next match against Espanyol.
DECEMBER 11, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Five crosses in loss Cervi sent in five crosses (one accurate) during Sundays 2-1 loss to Valencia.
Impact Cervi took a duty on set-pieces and did well with it, though it's not a role he normally has off the bench. The midfielder would be an interesting fantasy play when in the starting XI, though it's hard to trust him when he comes off the bench in most matches.
DECEMBER 5, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Assists off bench Cervi provided one assist on one chance created during Saturday's three-all draw with Barcelona.
Impact Cervi came off the bench for the final 25 minutes and provided an assist. The midfielder lacks any fantasy value as he rarely starts, and isn't efficient when he does start. That seems unlikely to change after the international break.
NOVEMBER 6, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Scores in first start Cervi scored one goal from two shots (one on goal) during 63 minutes of Sunday's 5-2 loss to Real Madrid.
Impact Cervi began the season as an option off the bench but was given the chance to start over Nolito in the midfield. A goal is sure to help his standing even more, though don't count out Nolito just yet in a team with plenty of reliable attacking options. Up next for both is a visit from Cadiz, which have conceded seven goals in four matches so far.

Signs with Celta Vigo Cervi has signed a five-year deal with Celta Vigo away from Benfica.
Impact Cervi makes his way to La Liga after appearing in 103 matches for Benfica the last five seasons. In his prime, he'll likely serve in more of a backup role this season behind Iago Aspas and Santi Mina, but on a five-year deal, he's expected to eventually step into a starting role.
