John Guidetti joins Deportivo Alaves

Celta striker John Guidetti moved to La Liga rivals Deportivo Alaves on loan until the end of the season.

The 25-year-old Swedish international is hoping to revive his career following a disappointing start to the season at Celta which saw him make only 8 La Liga appearances in the 2017/18 season.

Guidetti was expected to spearhead Celta’s attack this campaign but the towering Swede suffered a collarbone injury during preseason which ruled him out for almost two months into the new campaign. Having successfully recovered from injury, he struggled to get back into the squad.

Former Manchester City forward is hoping to gain regular playing time that would boost his chances of making it into Sweden’s World Cup squad.

Deportivo Alaves confirmed the deal for John Guidetti on their official website on Monday.

El Glorioso are enduring a difficult season and hope the physical presence of the Swedish striker could help them improve exploits in attack to boost their chance of staying up.

Alaves are currently sitting in 18th place in La Liga standings with only 15 points from 18 matches.
