The future of Stole Dimitrievski at Valencia is looking increasingly shaky. Once expected to play a big role between the sticks, the Macedonian has suddenly slipped down the pecking order this summer.
Why? Because Valencia struck a deal to bring in Julen Agirrezabala on loan from Athletic Club. The young shot-stopper didn’t just arrive quietly — he was handed the starting gloves straight away in Los Che’s La Liga opener against Real Sociedad.
That decision sent a clear message: Agirrezabala is Carlos Corberán’s first-choice, leaving Dimitrievski sidelined.
Celta Vigo Step In
Sensing an opportunity, Celta Vigo have jumped back into the picture. According to transfer insider Matteo Moretto, the Galician club have once again explored the possibility of bringing Dimitrievski to Balaídos.
In his words:
“In the last few hours, Celta Vigo have once again explored the profile of Valencia’s Stole Dimitrievski.”
This move suggests that Celta are actively looking to bolster their goalkeeping department before the window slams shut.
What This Means
For Valencia, letting Dimitrievski leave could free up squad space and reduce competition in goal. For Dimitrievski himself, it could be the fresh start he desperately needs after being overtaken by Agirrezabala.
Final Word
With the transfer window ticking down, this could be one of the quiet but decisive goalkeeper moves in La Liga. Dimitrievski may well have to swap Mestalla for Balaídos if he wants regular minutes this season.
Omo, imagine going from starter to benchwarmer in a flash — football no dey smile at all.
