The Deportivo Alavés has forcefully entered the race for Denis Suárez, significantly hindering the plans of Celta de Vigo, who dreamed of repatriating the attacking midfielder to strengthen their squad.

What seemed like a simple wish of the coach Claudio Giráldez has turned into an open struggle between two LaLiga clubs, with the Vitorian team clearly gaining ground.

The sky blue team had prioritized the arrival of a playmaker to lighten Iago Aspas's playing load, and the return of the player from Salceda de Caselas seemed to be the preferred option. The player himself had shown willingness to adjust his economic demands in order to return to Balaídos, where he experienced his best moments before his abrupt departure. However, internal complications within Celta, which needs to free up both sporting and wage slots, have opened a window that Alavés has been able to capitalize on.

Coudet has requested the signing of Denis Suárez to Deportivo Alavés

In Vitoria, the attacking midfielder has the support of Eduardo Coudet, who previously coached Denis during his time in Galicia and has a fond memory of his performance. The Argentine coach has urged the Alavés board to make a final effort to secure the former Barcelona and Villarreal player, aware that his quality could make a difference in the battle for survival. "Chacho's" persistence has made Alavés the frontrunner to sign the player.

Alavés emerges as a strong possibility for Denis Suárez's destination.

Celta is working day and night for his return, but from Vitoria, they would make a big effort by request of Coudet.

Burnley and Al Riyadh have also presented offers.

Decisive hours.

Meanwhile, in Vigo, the situation is getting complicated. Neither Joseph Aidoo nor Franco Cervi seem inclined to leave, and this resistance blocks any attempt to bring in new faces. The Ghanaian center holds onto his final year of contract, while the Argentine winger is considering offers, like the one from Portuguese Santa Clara, but he prefers to wait to leave for free next summer. This scenario leaves Celta with their hands tied, watching as Alavés accelerates and takes the lead.

On the other hand, Denis is also considering offers from abroad, including from Burnley in the Premier League or Al Riyadh in Saudi Arabia. However, his priority remains competing in Europe and staying in a top-tier league. Alavés has shown more determination than anyone else and is already working on ways to reduce the impact of his high salary. Villarreal, aware that the player has only one more year on his contract, will not put up too much resistance to his departure.

The outcome seems near. Denis Suárez does not want to wait until the market deadline and hopes to have his future sorted out within days. Everything indicates that Mendizorroza could become his new destination, in an unexpected turn that leaves Celta without their desired reinforcement and Alavés with a proven quality signing to face the season with greater assurances.
