GAME LOG

Herniated disc confirmed Starfelt is out for the time being due to a herniated disc, according to his club.
Impact Starfelt has been out for some time due to a back injury, and the exact reason has finally been figured out, with the defender suffering from a herniated disc. Unfortunately, with only a few matches left this season, it puts his season in jeopardy. He has been a regular starter, so this is a rough loss for the club, losing a defender with 19 starts this season.
MAY 1 • ROTOWIRE
Back issue keeps him sidelined Starfelt remains unavailable for the time being as he continues to manage his back injury, the club posted.
Impact Starfelt will now miss a fourth consecutive match with a back issue, and with no timeline provided for his return, Celta Vigo will need to continue managing without one of their regular defensive options. Joseph Aidoo, Javi Rodriguez, Marcos Alonso, Carlos Dominguez and Alvaro Nunez have been combining to fill the back three in his absence, and the club will monitor his progress carefully before making any decisions on his return to the matchday squad.
APRIL 11 • ROTOWIRE
Still missing Starfelt (back) is out for Thursday's match against Frieburg, according to manager Claudio Giraldez, per Rafa Valero of Marca. "He is an important player for us but we have had man...
Impact Starfelt is still going to miss some more time as he deals with a back injury, as the club is set to head into UEL action without him. This marks a third straight game out for the defender, with the club not having a starter available. With Stareflt out, Joseph Aidoo, Javi Rodriguez, Marcos Alonso, Carlos Dominguez and Alvaro Nunez will combine to make a back three, as the club does see normal rotation.
APRIL 8 • ROTOWIRE
Left out of squad again Starfelt (undisclosed) was left out of the matchday squad for Sunday's clash against Valencia, the club posted.
Impact Starfelt has been dealing with muscular problems on and off in recent weeks, and despite logging 27 starts in 30 appearances across all competitions this season, the club is opting not to risk him again on Sunday. Joseph Aidoo and Carlos Dominguez are the most likely candidates to pick up extra minutes in the back-three during his absence. The club has not provided a timeline for his return, and his availability going forward will depend on how the muscular situation evolves over the coming days.
APRIL 4 • ROTOWIRE
Fit to play Starfelt (undisclosed) joined the Sweden national team for international duty and is fit to play, according to coach Graham Potter, per Nyheter 24. "I have not heard anything negat...
Impact Starfelt was likely given a breather in Sunday's clash against Alaves due to muscular fatigue, which makes sense given how heavy his workload has been for the Celeste this season after logging 27 starts in 30 appearances across all competitions. The center-back has now linked up with the Swedish national team and is expected to take on a solid role there as well.
MARCH 24 • ROTOWIRE
Not in squad Starleft (undisclosed) won't be an option for Sunday's clash against Alaves, the club posted.
Impact Starfelt was left out of the squad for Sunday's clash against Alaves because of an undisclosed issue after he was forced off at halftime in the last match against Lyon in the Europa League. The center-back will look to use the international break to get back on track and be available again for Celta in April. Until he is fully back up to speed, Carlos Dominguez is in line for a bigger role in the back three.
MARCH 21 • ROTOWIRE
Starting vs. Real Madrid Starleft (undisclosed) is in the starting lineup for Friday's match against Real Madrid.
Impact Starleft was deemed available to play Friday and will return to his regular starting role next to Marcos Alonso and Javi Rodriguez in a three-man center-back line. Starfelt has started in 15 of his 17 Liga appearances this season.
MARCH 6 • ROTOWIRE
Option against Real Madrid Starfelt (undisclosed) trained fully this week and is back available for Friday's clash against Real Madrid, according to coach Claudio Giraldez, per Mundo Celeste. "The rest are t...
Impact Starfelt trained fully with the squad this week and is back in the mix for Friday's clash against Real Madrid after missing the last match against Girona with an undisclosed issue. The defender returning to full fitness is a boost for the Celeste since he is a regular starter in the back-three when available and is expected to slide right back into the starting XI against the Merengues.
MARCH 5 • ROTOWIRE
Ruled out Sunday Starfelt (undisclosed) is ruled out for Sunday's clash against Girona, the club posted.
Impact Starfelt is battling an undisclosed issue and will be sidelined for Sunday's showdown against Girona. The center-back is expected to be re-evaluated early next week to determine the full scope of the problem and whether it will cost him additional time. If he remains out, Joseph Aidoo and Javi Rodriguez are in line to log heavier minutes along the back line.
FEBRUARY 28 • ROTOWIRE
Clears illness Starfelt (illness) is back available for Sunday's clash against Getafe, the club posted.
Impact Starfelt missed Thursday's clash against Red Star Belgrade in the Europa League due to a stomach bug but could clear it fully in time to be back available for Sunday's clash against Getafe. The defender has been an undisputed starter in the back-three under coach Claudio Giraldez and there is no doubt that he will regain that role moving forward for the Celeste.
JANUARY 31 • ROTOWIRE
Misses UEL game with stomach bug Starfelt was unable to play in Thursday's Europa League meeting with Red Star Belgrade due to gastroenteritis, according to the team.
Impact Starfelt will continue to work on regaining health ahead of the weekend's La Liga trip to Getafe. He would be a likely starter under normal conditions, but this issue could limit his playing time if it extends for more days. In that case, Yoel Lago might have a rare opportunity to feature in Celta's three-man back line.
JANUARY 29 • ROTOWIRE
Wins two tackles Starfelt registered two tackles (two won), four clearances and one interception in Sunday's 3-0 victory versus Rayo Vallecano.
Impact Starfekt had a solid day, winning two tackles with two aerials won with a block shot during the clean sheet win Sunday. Since opening the season injured, he's totaled 11 starts in 13 appearances, winning 10 tackles, making seven blocked shots and winning 18 aerials in La Liga.
JANUARY 18 • ROTOWIRE
Five clearances during win Starfelt generated two tackles (one won), five clearances and one interception in Monday's 1-0 victory versus Sevilla.
Impact Five ties Starfelt's lowest number of clearances across his last four appearances. Celta Vigo's team has logged four clean sheets across its last five games, and the only game Starfelt did not play was the one in which his team conceded a goal. In the four clean-sheet appearances, he logged 35 clearances, four interceptions, two blocks and one tackle won.
JANUARY 13 • ROTOWIRE
Makes five clearances in victory Starfelt recorded five clearances in Sunday's 2-0 victory over Athletic.
Impact Starfelt did a good job as the central member of a back three that stopped the Bilbao side's potent attack. He has made four consecutive starts across all competitions, helping his team to achieve a couple of clean sheets during that span. He's mainly reliable for passes and defensive stats in his current role, with high numbers of clearances standing out among his recent contributions.
DECEMBER 14, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Clears suspension Starfelt is no longer suspended and is an option moving forward for the club.
Impact Starfelt has served his suspension following his two yellows against Real Sociedad and is set to return in the next contest. The defender is an undisputed starter when available for the Celeste and is expected to return to the starting squad.
OCTOBER 27, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Two first half yellows Starfelt was sent off in the 45th minute of Sunday's 1-1 draw to Real Sociedad.
Impact Starfelt would see two first-half yellow cards Sunday, and that would lead to his exit, sent off just ahead of halftime. This will leave him suspended for the next match, missing out against Osasuna on Oct. 26 and returning against Levante on Nov. 2. He has started in their past three games, so this will force a change, with Carlos Dominguez as a likely replacement.
OCTOBER 19, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Scores own goal in draw Starfelt made three clearances and one interception but scored an own goal during Sunday's 1-1 draw against Atletico Madrid.
Impact Starfelt made his first league start of the season but, unfortunately for him, he was mostly noticed for the own goal he scored to give the opposition the lead with just seven minutes into the game. The good news for the center-back is that he looks fully recovered from the physical issues that made him miss the start of the campaign and now he'll have an international break to get himself in even better shape.
OCTOBER 7, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Returns in Europa League Starfelt started and played the full 90 during Thursday's match with PAOK.
Impact Starfelt was fully cleared of an ankle injury pre-match, and that seems to have gone as expected. He played the full 90, moved well throughout and seemed to be fully fit. This was his second start of the season, as he missed the opening three matches due to injury and has been working to get back to full fitness.
OCTOBER 2, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Cleared of injury Starfelt (ankle) has been medically cleared, according to his club.
Impact Starfelt suffered an ankle injury a few days ago but has already returned to the group, as the defender has been cleared for play moving forward. This is solid news for the defender, as he started in the match before his injury. However, he has only started in one of his three appearances and will likely return to a rotational role.
OCTOBER 1, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Suffers ankle problem Starfelt is not in the squad for Sunday's match against Elche due to an ankle injury.
Impact Starfelt picked up an ankle injury in the UEFA Europa League debut against Stuttgart on Thursday, and he won't be an option here. It remains to be seen whether he'll be able to recover for the team's two games next week, against PAOK and Atletico Madrid, before the international break.
SEPTEMBER 27, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Back available against Girona Starfelt (leg) is in the squad list for Sunday's clash against Girona.
Impact Starfelt has fully recovered from his leg injury after returning to full training this week and is back available for Celta Vigo. The center-back is expected to return directly to a starting role in the back-three now that he is available.
SEPTEMBER 13, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Out for time being Starfelt underwent further examinations on Tuesday that confirmed a grade I rupture in his left femoral biceps and is out for the time being, the club announced.
Impact Starfelt suffered a grade I rupture in his left femoral biceps and will likely miss several weeks to recover from the issue. The timeline for those types of injuries is usually between two weeks and one month but can be longer if the recovery does not go as planned. Starfelt is a regular starter in the back three of Celta Vigo, therefore his absence will force a change in the starting XI, with Yoel Lago likely taking a larger role for the Celeste.
AUGUST 19, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Suffers leg injury Starfelt has suffered a muscular lesion to his left leg and is out for the time being, the club announced.
Impact Starfelt suffered a leg injury in recent days and will be out while he recovers. His return date is uncertain but he is expected to be sidelined for a few weeks. He is a regular starter in Celta Vigo's back three so his absence will likely open the door for Yoel Lago to start in his place.
AUGUST 16, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Plays 20 during friendly Starfelt (hamstring) appeared for 20 minutes as a substitute in a friendly on Tuesday.
Impact Starfelt was able to return to the field this week after receiving medical clearance to begin the offseason, seeing an appearance as a substitute. This is solid news even though is was a minor cameo, still able to take the field. He was a regular starter last season, so he will look to begin the 2025/26 season as a starter again.
JULY 15, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Receives medical clearance Starfelt (hamstring) has received medical clearance and will start the pre-season fully fit, the club announced.
Impact Starfelt suffered a season-ending hamstring injury in late April but has now fully recovered and is fully fit heading into the pre-season for the 2025/26 campaign. The defender will be a key player in the backline for Celta Vigo once again and is set to play in Europe with the Spanish club after previously featuring in European matches during his Celtic days.
