Hugo Álvarez, born on 2 July 2003 (age 23), is a Spanish right winger whose senior career has been built almost entirely at Celta Vigo. He wears squad number 23 and has become a regular part of the first-team picture rather than a passing academy name.
Across five league seasons with Celta, Álvarez has made 76 league appearances and scored nine league goals. His most productive campaign came in 2024-25, when he scored four times in 26 league appearances, a useful return from wide areas without needing to pretend he was carrying the side on his own.
In 2026-27, he has made nine LaLiga appearances and four more in the Europa League, scoring once in Europe. That leaves him on 13 appearances and one goal for Celta across all competitions so far this season.
Álvarez’s career remains firmly centred on Celta Vigo: five seasons, steady league involvement, and a growing body of European experience at a still-developing age.
