Wolves Land Midfielder in €20m Deal After Celta Vigo Contract Loophole

Wolves Raid Celta Vigo for Starlet as Transfer Loophole Frustrates La Liga Club Contract Clause Opens Door for Wolves Celta Vigo's hopes of landing a record-breaking transfer fee have been dashed by a clause hidden deep within Fer López's reserve team contract. As reported by the talented midfielder is poised to join Wolverhampton Wanderers for just €20 million, rather than the €40 million many assumed was required. Advertisement The low release figure stems from López's dual contract arrangement. His first-team clause stood at €40 million, but because he was never formally promoted beyond the reserves, Wolves only need to pay half. 'Currently, Fer López still has a reserve team contract, and Wolverhampton's emergence at this time means he only has to pay €20 million to secure the talented Celta Vigo midfielder.' Photo IMAGO Mendes Connection Proves Pivotal Celta Vigo are effectively powerless to stop the deal, with López having already agreed terms with the Premier League side. Their only option now lies in negotiating payment in instalments. Ironically, the club's best hope for a smoother exit may lie with Jorge Mendes, Wolves' manager and López's agent. Advertisement 'The good relationship between Celta Vigo and Jorge Mendes… could facilitate this path.' Missed Opportunity for Celta's Future The loss is immense, both on the pitch and in the accounts. Celta lose the player earmarked to follow Iago Aspas's footsteps — 'the heir to Iago Aspas, the most talented player in the youth academy since the genius from Moaña emerged.' The club also forfeits the most lucrative deal in their history. '€20 million for a player as promising as Fer López sounds like a real bargain.' Financial Fallout for Club Leadership Celta's decision not to promote López to the senior squad now haunts sporting director Marco Garcés. 'Garcés won't have as much money to find a replacement, which would be entirely different from earning €40 million.' Advertisement In the unforgiving modern market, €20 million feels like pocket change for such a high ceiling. Wolves appear to have pulled off one of the smartest coups of the summer. Our View – EPL Index Analysis For Wolves supporters, this feels like a watershed moment. Picking up a player of Fer López's calibre, one hailed as 'the heir to Iago Aspas,' for just €20 million is daylight robbery in today's inflated market. It is a clear sign that the club, now under Jorge Mendes' direct stewardship, is finally exploiting its unique network smartly. This move sends out a message: Wolves are done with scrapping for survival. They want to build something lasting. López isn't just another punt on potential — he's seen as a player Celta hoped to build their future around. Now, that future might be cast in old gold. Advertisement Of course, expectation brings pressure. If López settles quickly, Wolves could have a midfield star ready to influence games by Christmas. The fact that Mendes is both representing and managing ensures the player will be given every chance. There will be concerns about ethics and dual interests, but right now, the only thing Wolves fans care about is the talent. If this transfer works, it could be the start of a golden generation at Molineux.

Oilers are unfazed in the face of defeat: ‘This was always going to be a long series'

EDMONTON — It wasn't quite the famous Mark Messier guarantee, but Jake Walman's words after a dreadful loss in Game 5 of the Stanley Cup Final had the same sentiment. 'This was always going to be a long series,' the Edmonton Oilers defenseman told The Athletic after a 5-2 home-ice defeat to the Florida Panthers left his team on the brink of dropping a second straight Final. Advertisement 'We're going to come back here after a game there, and that's it. There's no doubt.' Walman, Edmonton's key trade-deadline acquisition, had perhaps his worst performance as an Oiler. His team was caved in when he was on the ice, and he was schooled by Brad Marchand before a goal that stood as the game winner. His subpar play mirrored that of most of his teammates. The entire group was as flat as a pancake for most of the game, only finding some life when Connor McDavid scored his first goal of the series 7:24 into the third to put the Oilers within two. Sam Reinhart then replied 46 seconds later, quashing whatever faint hopes existed of a victory. Watching the Oilers bumble around the ice on Saturday night leaves little optimism that a championship is even close to a possibility. Then again, the way the Oilers have responded magnificently throughout the playoffs when they've looked dead and buried is reason enough to change that viewpoint and subscribe to Walman's. 'Knowing that we're in a difficult situation, win our last two games, is something that we're confident that we can do,' said coach Kris Knoblauch. 'We've been through difficult situations before, and it's just another one that we'll overcome.' That the Oilers are bold and brazen makes sense. After all, these are the same Oilers who trailed the Los Angeles Kings 2-0 in their opening-round series and heading into the third periods of the next two games at home. They charged back to knock off the Kings with relative ease. These are the same Oilers who gave the Vegas Golden Knights life with a last-second own-goal in Game 3 of the second round, a result that could have shell-shocked them. They proceeded to drop the hammer, shutting out the Golden Knights in back-to-back games to close them out. These are the same Oilers who collapsed in the third period of the Western Conference final opener against the Dallas Stars by allowing five unanswered goals. They then mopped the floor with the Stars, handling them while claiming the next four games. Advertisement And these are the same Oilers who, after a terrible 6-1 loss in Game 3 to the Panthers, overcame a three-goal deficit in Game 4 to even the series. That was their eighth comeback win of the playoffs. Count these Oilers out at your peril. 'We know that we can get it done,' said Ryan Nugent-Hopkins, the longest-serving Oiler. 'It's just a matter of going out there and finding a way to do it. It's going to be our hardest challenge yet.' That's the case because of the way they played for most of Saturday's contest. Save for little spurts that were few and far between, the Oilers were awful. Walman and Mattias Ekholm struggled mightily in what was their second attempt at a partnership after a mere 1:31 together at five-on-five during the regular season, per Natural Stat Trick. The Oilers were outshot 4-1 and out-attempted 10-2 in the 5:09 Ekholm and Walman shared the ice at five-on-five in the opening frame. Ekholm had his worst performance since returning from a lower-body injury for the West final climax. He was on the ice for both of Florida's first-period goals against and was a team-worst minus-3. Walman was on with Ekholm for the second of those tallies. The Oilers have now allowed 11 goals against in the first period in this series, at least two in every game. 'It's frustrating when you come into the (dressing) room and you're down,' Walman said. 'We're struggling to get to our game right away. It takes us a little bit. I don't know what the reasoning is. 'We have it in us to play the way that we want.' Ekholm was back with his regular partner, Evan Bouchard, for the second. Walman's night, meanwhile, was bookended by being walked by Marchand. 'That's a good player,' Walman said. 'S—-y feeling as a defenseman. I want to have that one back. I've just got to play everybody hard. It doesn't matter who they are.' Advertisement The Oilers had little offensive pop and went the final 11:10 of the first period without a shot on goal. Knoblauch leaned into his nuclear option of McDavid and Leon Draisaitl in the second but had to rotate in wingers Evander Kane and Viktor Arvidsson to spell off elder statesman Corey Perry. Zach Hyman's absence was never felt more. The superstars didn't have their ace complementary winger, and the lineup seemed thinner than ever. McDavid was tasked with playing 25:49, for instance. To the surprise of no one, Calvin Pickard got the start after making 22-of-23 saves in relief of Stuart Skinner from the second period onward of a 5-4 overtime win in Game 4. Pickard's magic ran out as he suffered his first loss in eight decisions in these playoffs after allowing four goals on 18 shots. That calls into question whether he or Skinner should get the call for the pivotal Game 6, the first time all postseason the Oilers are facing elimination. 'From what I saw, Picks didn't have much chance on all those goals,' Knoblauch said. 'There was nothing saying that it was a poor performance.' Given all that happened with the Oilers on Saturday night, it could feel like the Oilers' season might as well be over. Just eight teams have overcome a 3-2 series deficit to win the Stanley Cup, none since the Boston Bruins in 2011, back in Marchand's first full NHL season. The Oilers have a herculean task ahead of them: being the first to beat the defending champs in their own barn and, if they manage that, to then beat them at home. The Panthers just earned their 10th road win, tying an NHL record. 'At this time, it's more about looking forward. I'm not too big on looking in the rearview mirror,' Ekholm said. 'We've just got to go down to Florida and win a game.' The Oilers must be considerably better than they were in Game 5 if they want to get revenge in this matchup and win the first Stanley Cup by a Canadian club in 32 years and end a 35-year franchise drought. Advertisement But if there's a team that can do this, it just might be this one. This Oilers club has leapt over just about every hurdle they've faced over the last two months. What's one more? 'We have confidence in ourselves that we can get the job done,' Nugent-Hopkins said. 'What's left is easier said than done. You've got go do it, so we'll look forward to that.'

Florida Panthers rebound from a bitter defeat to take pivotal Game 5 against Edmonton Oilers in Stanley Cup Final

The Florida Panthers celebrate after scoring a goal in Game 5 of the Stanley Cup Final Saturday night in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. -The Florida Panthers are just one win away from being crowned NHL champions for a second consecutive season after a resounding 5-2 win over the Edmonton Oilers in Game 5 of the Stanley Cup Final Saturday night at Rogers Place in Edmonton. The pivotal win comes just 48 hours after the Panthers let a three-goal lead slip away on home ice on Thursday. Advertisement The Panthers' push for back-to-back championships continues to be sparked by 37-year-old trade deadline acquisition Brad Marchand, who scored a pair of goals Saturday night to bring his total to six tallies through five games in the finals. With the series knotted at 2-2 entering Game 5, a win would give the victors a distinct advantage moving forward. Teams that win the fifth game a tied Stanley Cup Final have gone on to claim the championship 73% of the time, according to the NHL. As each team looked to get off to a fast start, it was the Panthers who found the back of the net first, midway through the opening period. Marchand collected the puck off a face-off at center ice and split a pair of Oilers defenders before slotting the puck past Edmonton goalie Calvin Pickard to give Florida the early 1-0 lead. With two minutes remaining in the first period, Edmonton turned the puck over in the neutral zone and Florida capitalized in the blink of an eye as Sam Bennett scored his fifth goal of the finals to stake the Panthers to a 2-0 lead heading to the first intermission. Bennett leads all players with 15 goals in the 2025 postseason. Advertisement After a scoreless second period, the action picked up again in the third period as the Panthers continued to take the fight to the Oilers. Once again it was Marchand scoring a spectacular goal for Florida on a one-on-one breakaway to put the Panthers ahead 3-0 and bring his total to 10 goals this this year's playoffs. Brad Marchand of the Florida Panthers scores his second goal of the night and sixth of the series in Game 5 of the Stanley Cup Final. -In his 16th NHL season, Marchand is putting his name next to some of the NHL's all-time greats. He has become first player since Mario Lemieux to have 5+ goals in two different Stanley Cup Final series. Marchand's scoring outburst has also moved him to 6th place on the list of most goals scored in the finals in the expansion era. Just over two minutes after Marchand's magical goal, Edmonton finally got on the scoreboard as Oilers superstar Connor McDavid scored from a tough angle to cut the Panthers' advantage to 3-1. Advertisement The Panthers answered less than a minute later when Sam Reinhart shot a wrister through traffic to restore Florida's cushion at 4-1. Late in the period with the game out of reach, Edmonton's Corey Perry scored, but Florida again answered with an empty net goal from Eetu Luostarinen to maintain a three-goal winning margin. The best-of seven series now shifts 2,500 miles back to South Florida where the Panthers can become the first team to lift the Stanley Cup in back-to-back seasons since their in-state rivals the Tampa Bay Lightning accomplished the feat in 2020 and 2021. Edmonton must find a counter to Florida's two-man wrecking crew of Marchand and Bennett if the Oilers are to have any hope of being the first Canadian team to win a championship since the Montreal Canadiens in 1993. Advertisement Marchand and Bennett are the first teammates to each score at least five goals in a Stanley Cup Final in over 50 years. Florida will have a chance to close out the series at home on Tuesday in Game 6 at Amerant Bank Arena in Sunrise, Florida. For more CNN news and newsletters create an account at
