The Mexican Orbelín Pineda must prepare his suitcases to be able to join the Celta de Vigo , although the president of the Galician team Carlos Mouriño assured that it will be presented in a matter of days.

Although it is expected that the former player of Cruz Azul joins the team next week, he will have to wait for a foreigner position to be vacated so that he can be enrolled in the payroll of the team led by Eduardo Coudet , for his part, the president confirmed that they have the entire month of January.

“The terms and dates -of the arrival of Orbelín- are things of Felipe Miñambres (sports director), but it is true that you have to wait until you have the place of foreigner to be able to register it. We have the entire month of January to register it, but we hope to have a place before ”, said President Carlos Mouriño for the local newspaper La Voz de Galicia.

Situation with non-EU citizens

For Orbelín Pineda to be registered with Celta de Vigo, nationalization problems must be resolved with the players Renato Tapia of Peru, Franco Cervi from Argentina and Thiago Galhardo from Brazil. Although with the regularization of some of these players, Pineda will be able to be enrolled in the payroll without problems.
