Altay Bayındır Makes Debut in Celta Vigo Win
Altay Bayındır debuted for Celta Vigo in a 5-0 victory over Salamanca on Friday in a rescheduled Copa del Rey match, as reported by sozcu.com.tr. The victory advanced Celta Vigo to the next round of the tournament.
The 28-year-old goalkeeper started in his first appearance since joining the LaLiga club on loan from Manchester United at the start of the season, Yorumla reported. Ferran Jutlga and Williot Swedberg scored two goals each, while Andres Antanon added one against the fourth-tier Spanish side. Salamanca played with ten men after Maximo Levrand received a red card in the 61st minute.
Bayındır spent the early months of the campaign waiting for his chance while manager Claudio Giraldez selected Ionut Radu for league and Europa League fixtures, according to Sporx.com. Prior to this match, the Turkish international had not played a single official minute for the Spanish side since joining in the summer transfer window.
Special Clause Reduces Loan Fee
Altay Bayındır’ın forma giymesi, Celta Vigo’nun Manchester United ile yaptığı kiralama anlaşmasındaki özel bir madde gereği kulübe ekonomik açıdan avantaj sağlayacak. Sporx.com reported that the loan fee decreases based on the number of matches the goalkeeper plays.
Manchester United originally signed the Turkish international from Fenerbahçe in the summer of 2023 for a 5 million euro transfer fee.
First-choice goalkeeper Ionut Radu has been receiving treatment for a shoulder injury, which kept him from joining his national team camp.
