Javi Galán, born on 19 November 1994 (age 31), is a Spanish left back with Celta Vigo, where he wears squad number 22. His career has been built in Spain, with the usual full-back blend of defensive work, running power and the occasional contribution further up the pitch.
His most productive league season came with Córdoba in 2016–17, when he scored two goals in 16 appearances. That was an early marker of a player capable of giving a side some thrust from the left without being defined by end product.
By 2026–27, Galán is with Celta Vigo and has made five LaLiga appearances. His career to this point is that of an established Spanish top-flight professional: a specialist left back, steady enough to keep finding work at a serious level, without needing much embroidery around it.
