Borja Iglesias returns to Celta de Vigo on loan from Betis. Iglesias, known as 'the panda' in Spain, previously played for Celta de Vigo's B team from 2013 to 2017, becoming their all-time top scorer with 76 goals. He had a successful season on loan at Leverkusen, winning the Bundesliga and DFB-Pokal, despite not scoring in 10 matches.

Borja Iglesias becomes a new player for Celta, joining on loan from Betis until the end of the season with no purchase option. The Galician team will cover the player's entire salary, which is over two million euros net per season.
