Overview
- Osasuna confirmed that Galán’s commitment expired on Tuesday, June 30, 2026, and the player left the club after choosing not to exercise a unilateral renewal option.
- Celta announced Galán as its second signing of the window, following Aleix Febas, and reported that he has signed a contract running to 2028.
- The move is a cost-free transfer because Galán allowed the option in his Osasuna contract to lapse, enabling him to join Celta without a transfer fee.
- Celta also confirmed six departures from the squad, including Mihailo Ristić, Óscar Mingueza, Joseph Aidoo, Franco Cervi, Fer López and Marc Vidal, as part of a broader roster reshuffle.
- Galán returns to a club where he was a regular starter from 2021–2023, bringing familiarity and minutes to the left-back role and giving coach Claudio Giráldez an experienced, low-cost option as Celta prepare for LaLiga and Europa League campaigns.
