The Valencia CF transfer market lives a decisive week with André Almeida as the main protagonist. The 26-year-old Portuguese international figures in the wishlist of Real Celta to reinforce their midfield before the 2026/27 UEFA Europa League campaign. According to Superdeporte, Celta de Vigo prioritizes the '10' Valencian, 125 kilometers from his native city, Guimarães, but his arrival depends on solving the 'overbooking' in the Galician midfield line. The operation extends to the last week of the market while the Galician club seeks exits to free up a spot. When Valencia had advanced an agreement with Swansea for around 3.5 million euros plus variables, Celta burst in as a much more attractive option for the player, who halted the Welsh operation upon learning Claudio Giráldez wants to count on him. Now, Valencia wants an offer above the Swansea bid, while Celta will seek a price rounding three million. In this context, Ilaix Moriba emerges as the big sale Celta can make. The Guinean international, who did not travel to the Italy concentration due to disciplinary decision after arriving late to training, figures in the agenda of several Premier League teams, though no offer has materialized in the 20 million euros he was valued at months ago. Marco Garcés, Celta's Director of Football, publicly backed Giráldez, though the situation does not necessarily imply a definitive rupture given the player's importance to the project. Although André Almeida counts on the support of the sporting direction and the coaching staff, his signing is conditional on midfield exits. If it is not Ilaix, another option is Matías Vecino, who has only one year of contract remaining. Celta wants to reinforce the attack first, prioritizing the arrival of Exequiel Zeballos from Boca Juniors, though they study his physical and injury report before investing over seven million. Celta foresees two intense and long market weeks, with the Almeida affair looking set to extend to the last week awaiting a domino effect. Ilaix could bring in revenue and a free spot, Vecino only the latter, and a third exit option to open the door to the Portuguese would be Carles Pérez. Manu Fernández's departure wishes to be filled with a new center-back. André -and Valencia- must wait for a definitive Celta move, once they free space and money to fully regenerate a midfield that has surplus quality with men like Miguel Román and Álex Febas, signed from Elche CF.
