Vigo local newspaper Atlántico Diario claims that Spanish second division club Celta Vigo is interested in Barcelona Juvenil A attacking midfielder and Spanish youth international Iago Falqué (18).Asked about the interest, Iago said in an interview with the paper that he would like to return to his former club: "It's the club of my town and I have to admit that it would be very nice to wear the Celta jersey. I know that Celta was interested in a loan last summer, but I don't know if the clubs have already held talks now. Barcelona wants me to leave on loan, but if I leave it will be on a permanent deal, at least that's my plan."
The entourage of the player confirmed to the paper that Iago has received several interesting proposals, including from abroad. The attacker, who was told last week by Barcelona Atlètic coach Luis Enrique that he's not part of his plans for next season (read more here), prefers to join a team where he will be able to play and gain experience.
Iago and his representatives of player's agency IMG are now looking at the different offers and would like to close a deal by next week so the player can already adapt a little to his new environment before the start of the new season.
Asked about the situation of her son, Iago's mother and Spanish senator Carmela Silva said that she's not worried at all: "I'm very relaxed because there are several offers. He already decided to leave Barcelona and now he'll have to make a decision about where to go to."
Catalan sports paper El Mundo Deportivo claims that Iago, who has a contract until 2013, has asked Barcelona for a free transfer. The player would have offers from Celta and from several English and Spanish top clubs.
