Career
editBorn in Mondariz, Pontevedra, Galicia, Lago joined RC Celta de Vigo's youth sides in 2016, after representing Porriño Industrial FC and Mondariz FC.[1] He made his senior debut with the reserves on 25 September 2021, coming on as a late substitute for Fernando Medrano in a 1–0 Primera División RFEF away loss to CD Calahorra.[2]
In 2023, after finishing his formation, Lago was initially assigned to the C-team in Tercera Federación, but never featured for the side after establishing himself as a regular for the B-team during the pre-season. He made his first team – and La Liga – debut on 26 May 2024, starting in a 2–2 home draw against Valencia CF.[3][4][5]
