Celta Vigo vs. Barcelona: 5 former Blaugrana players reunite

  /  rzr0101

The Celta-Barça match holds the added intrigue of reuniting with former Barça players. 

Besides Ilaix Moriba, who has readily admitted he rushed his transfer to Leipzig, Flick's team will face Mingueza, Marcos Alonso, Ferran Jutglà, and Marc Vidal.

Of all of them, the right-back is still under contract with the Catalan club. Barça still owns 50% of his economic rights and could re-sign the international for €10 million, half of his release clause. Mingueza's contract expires in June 2026.

Marcos Alonso, who has recovered from gastroenteritis and is a possibility at left-back, will face a team he played for for two seasons, from 2022 to 2024, making a total of 45 appearances. Ferran Jutglà drew conclusions from the Club Brugge-Barça match. The striker played for the Belgian team for three seasons, from 2022 to 2025, after one season with the Barça first team, making 9 appearances and scoring two goals.

Marc Vidal, Celta's backup goalkeeper, never played for the first team. He spent one season with the reserve team, 2023-2024, before moving on.
