Diego Lopez was about to become a Celta Vigo player. The club and the player talked about him joining the club in the summer, but the player's salary caused the problem.
'AS' says that Diego Lopez, who contract ended last season, was a free agent and wanted to stay in La Liga. In fact, the keeper was willing to take a pay cut.
Celta Vigo had suffered, at the back end of the season, the injuries to both Ruben Blanco and Sergio Alvarez. And that is why they were looking to sign Diego Lopez.
However, the cited source says that Celta Vigo did not increase their bid and the 60,000 euros a year Diego Lopez gets prevented the move.
