Óscar Mingueza: Celta de Vigo Contract Extension

Óscar Mingueza was initially expected to renew and stay at Celta de Vigo, but later it seemed almost certain that he would move to Aston Villa under Spanish coach Unai Emery. However, it appears that the first scenario will occur. According to the local newspaper 'El Faro de Vigo', negotiations for his renewal are already very advanced, and Celta de Vigo plans to make the agreement official soon.

According to Marca, Celta de Vigo is feeling positive about the prospects of extending Óscar Mingueza's contract, which is due to expire in a year. It is reported that Mingueza is also inclined to remain in Vigo, where both he and his family are content. As a crucial member of the team, he is drawn to the club's project, appreciates the opportunity to compete in Europe, and maintains a strong rapport with coach Claudio Giráldez and his teammates. Over the season, he participated in 34 league matches and 2 cup games, contributing 4 goals and 6 assists. Celta and Barcelona have an agreement to equally divide any transfer fee obtained, in accordance with a 20 million clause in his contract. Celta is hopeful that he will continue to play for them for many more years.

Celta is in contact with Óscar Mingueza to negotiate a contract extension. His contract expires on June 30, 2026. Celta wants to secure his continuity as he is one of their most valuable players, valued at 20 million euros, with FC Barcelona holding 50% of his rights.

Celta de Vigo intends to renew Óscar Mingueza's contract and purchase the entirety of his economic rights from FC Barcelona. Although no formal offer has been made regarding his salary or contract duration, the club has communicated its intentions to FC Barcelona. The club's sporting director, Marco Garcés, has met with the player and his representative.
