Makes squad despite injury scare
Fernandez (undisclosed) has been included in the squad for Saturday's season finale against Sevilla despite having been ruled out earlier in the week after suffering a minor sprain in training, the club posted.
Analysis: Fernandez had been announced as unavailable by coach Claudio Giraldez after being unable to train Thursday, making his inclusion in the matchday squad a positive turnaround for Celta heading into the final fixture of the season. The defender has been a reliable rotation option throughout the campaign and will now have the opportunity to feature in the curtain closer against Sevilla.
Out for season finale
Fernandez suffered a minor sprain during training Thursday and has been ruled out of Saturday's season finale against Sevilla, according to coach Claudio Giraldez, per Mundo Celeste. "Manu joins the injured players, he had a minor sprain yesterday during training and couldn't train today. The rest are all available."
Analysis: Fernandez ends the season with 17 tackles, 12 interceptions and 37 clearances across 17 appearances (12 starts), having been a reliable rotation option for Celta throughout the campaign. The timing of the injury is unfortunate for the defender, who will miss the final fixture of the season after picking up the issue in training with just one game remaining.
