The Regal Hall of A Sede hosted the General Shareholders’ Meeting of RC Celta for the 2023/2024 season, where a total of 290,533 shares were represented, accounting for 77.6 percent of the share capital.
It was a unique meeting, imbued with a sense of gratitude and tribute to Carlos Mouriño and his board of directors, who mark the end of a key era in the club’s history, a period in which RC Celta experienced unprecedented growth and professionalization.
The shareholders approved the management report, the administration of the board of directors, and the annual accounts of the past campaign. They also ratified the appointment of the new board members proposed by Marián Mouriño, acting president of RC Celta.
