United States international Luca de la Torre has completed a move to LaLiga side Celta Vigo, it was reported yesterday.
ESPN reported earlier that the 24-year-old was set to join Celta from Heracles in a deal worth around $2 million.
The midfielder has signed a contract at the Spanish side until 2026 and becomes the club’s third signing of the summer transfer window.

Heracles’ relegation, combined with the fact that the USMNT is headed to the World Cup in November, made the move necessary for De la Torre, who is eager to cement his spot with the national team in Qatar.
