Real Oviedo and Girona CF have reached an agreement for Manu Vallejo to join the Asturians on a loan deal lasting until the end of the current season.
Manuel Javier Vallejo Galán is 25 years old and was born on 14th February 1997 in Chiclana de la Frontera (Spain). Having come through in Andalusian football, the winger signed for Cádiz in the 2014/15 season and began a successful spell there. After passing through the Cádiz Under-19 and B teams, he would make his way up into the first team. It would be current Real Oviedo Head Coach Álvaro Cervera who gave him his chance in professional football in the 2018/19 season, when he would play 33 matches in LaLiga SmartBank, scoring eight goals and providing two assists. His good performances would see Valencia CF sign him, and he has since played more than 50 matches in the top division of Spanish football. He has also represented Deportivo Alavés and Girona CF, from whom he now joins Los Azules. He played 8 matches with the Catalan side this season. The winger has also represented Spain's Under-21 side, with whom he was crowned champion of the Under-21 European Championship.
