Impact Sotelo hasn't featured for Celta Vigo since the Jan. 25 clash against Real Sociedad, largely due to an ankle issue, but after getting back on the training field this week, he's now a late call for Thursday's Europa League matchup against PAOK. Even if he's cleared, he returns to a midfield battle that's tightened up in his absence, with new comer Matias Vecino staking his claim. With that added competition in the engine room, Sotelo's minutes could take a hit moving forward with the Celeste.

The midfielder's next chance to return will be in Thursday's second leg against PAOK in the Europa League, but he'll need to make real progress over the next few days to get there.
