Nolito chasing Celta return

Nolito has admitted he is tempted to join Celta Vigo this summer and reaffirmed his desire to leave Manchester City.

The 30-year-old moved to the Etihad stadium last summer from the Galicians for €15m last summer and despite three goals in his first four games for the club – whom he joined ahead of Barcelona – he only started one match in 2017.

"Of course there are options. In life there are options for everything,” Nolito responded on Radio Marca when asked directly about a return to Estadio Balaidos.

"Of course I would like to return (to Celta).

"My spell in England? In the end the season took a turn for the worse but it's over now, these are things that happen and we must turn the page."

Earlier this week, the forward admitted he was keen on a return to Spain this summer and has also been linked to Real Betis, but his wage of €120,000 per week could be a stumbling block to any suitor.
