Iago Aspas, captain, emblem, and pride of RC Celta, has just become the Celeste’s player with the most games played in the top category of Spanish football. In the fourth matchday, which pits the Celestials against UD Almería, the youth academy product stepped onto the field to defend our badge for the 310th time in LaLiga EA Sports.
This achievement means he surpasses Hugo Mallo (309), who now stands in second place in the ranking, ahead of Mostovoi (235) and Monolo (226). Thus, two Celeste youth academy products occupy the top positions in this table; a true source of pride for the club.
Aspas made his debut with the first team on June 8, 2008, against UD Salamanca, and four years later, in 2012, he made his debut in LaLiga EA Sports in the match between RC Celta and Málaga CF. Eleven years later, the Celeste forward achieves another milestone in his career, with 310 games that attest to the “afouteza” and heart of the youth academy product.
