Celta Vigo may face penalty due to Altay Bayindir's lack of playing time
Summary

Celta Vigo is reportedly facing a potential fine from Manchester United concerning goalkeeper Altay Bayindir, who has not played a single minute this season. Bayindir, sent on loan to the Spanish club this summer, was expected to participate in Europa League matches. However, manager Ionuț Radu's strong performances have kept him on the bench. Celta Vigo's only opportunity for Bayindir to see action may come in a Copa del Rey match against Salamanca on November 13. The decision to prioritize Radu leads Celta to weigh the cost of the possible fine against their starting choice.
