Celta already has the reinforcement it was looking for in the heart of the defence. Sebastián Cáceres arrives from the Mexican club América and becomes the sixth signing of the Vigo side for the 2026/2027 season.

The Uruguayan centre-back, aged 27, signs until 2030, although his arrival is pending passing a medical check.
The official announcement came at around 22:00, after a prior post by the club in which the player’s name was already hinted at. The chosen nod was the arrival of a new regular from the Carné Celtista in Uruguay, the defender’s home country.

DFCáceres lands at the Celta after six and a half seasons at América. During that spell, he played more than 200 official matches and won three consecutive Liga MX titles, a Campeón de Campeones and the Campeones Cup.
From the Celeste’s ranks, they point out that the defender arrives at a time of competitive maturity and with experience in teams used to fighting for trophies. The club believes his profile can bring solidity and experience to Claudio Giráldez’s defence in a campaign featuring three competitions.
The Celta statement also highlights several of his defensive qualities. The club stresses his anticipation, his ability to protect wide spaces and his clean ball-carrying, arguments with which he established himself as one of the most reliable defenders in the Mexican league.
