It appears NRG esports have plans to continue bolstering their squad with Celta Vigo’s Iago Aspas despite recurring rumors of a rift between him and the team. The Spanish star was heavily linked with last year’s Valencia CF transfer window, potentially moving to the Spanish club after years at Celta Vigo. It seems that it is now clear NRG are targeting the 32-year-old for their team ahead of VCT 2024.
The recruitment of the strike ace will provide an additional layer of strength for the NRG squad, who have been near the top of the rankings for the VCT Spring Playoff. While the team’s strength has been noted, their recent winless streak could be something they address with the potential addition of Iago Aspas leading the attack.
The experienced veteran out of Celta Vigo has shown tremendous skill throughout his career, leading the Spanish club to various trophies and achievements. He is known for his immense work rate and creativity, traits which will surely benefit the NRG squad. His ability to lead the attack and create chances for his teammates adds another layer of potency to the NRG roster.
It is also said that Aspas could be accompanied by other teammates, potentially creating a strong bond between him and his new squad. If this is the case, then it could be a significant boost and one of the many steps forward towards success for NRG esports.
It remains to be seen if Iago Aspas will indeed join the Spanish squad for VCT 2024, but the rumor mill has been churning and it appears the team are keen to unleash their potential by bringing the winger into the squad.
