    WHAT HAPPENED?

    U.S. men's national team attacker Diego Luna is reportedly garnering transfer interest from multiple European clubs, including La Liga side Celta Vigo,

    Luna, 21, was the breakout star of the 2025 CONCACAF Gold Cup for the USMNT, scoring three goals and registering two assists en route to the championship game of the competition, where they fell just short to Mexico in the final, falling 2-1.

    Ahead of the 2025 MLS season, Leeds United were a club named as admirers of his talents as well, but as things stand, there have been no approaches to MLS side Real Salt Lake for his services.

    Celta Vigo finished seventh in La Liga last season, clinching a berth in the UEFA Europa League this coming season. They are managed by Claudio Giraldez.
