According to Cadena Ser, Girona is interested in Celta's 26-year-old Spanish midfielder, Fran Beltrán. The club had previously attempted to sign him during the summer and is now expected to complete the transfer in January. The move is supported by Girona's coach, Míchel Sánchez, who managed Beltrán at Rayo Vallecano and believes he is well-suited for the team. Beltrán, whose contract with Celta expires on June 30th, has reportedly experienced a strained relationship with his current club. With negotiations being finalized, Girona is willing to pay a transfer fee to secure the player, who has already said goodbye to his teammates at Celta and is expected to arrive in Girona within hours. The signing is partly motivated by the imminent departure of Jhon Solís to Birmingham, creating a need for midfield reinforcements. Beltrán is said to have a positive view of the move, with the official signing anticipated to be completed tomorrow, Saturday. The midfielder has one cap for Spain and has made 10 appearances in LaLiga during the 2025/2026 season. His current Transfermarkt market value is €5.00m; Celta de Vigo reportedly paid €8 million to sign him in August 2018 and was said in January 2026 to be demanding a fee that was described as significant.
