Iván Villar is a Spanish goalkeeper, born on 9 July 1997 (age 29), whose senior career has been shaped overwhelmingly by Celta Vigo.
He has made 61 league appearances for Celta across seven seasons, a long stretch at one club in a position where opportunities can be scarce and patience is often part of the job. Wearing squad number 25, he has been part of the Celta first-team picture across several campaigns rather than a passing name on the books.
There is little need to dress it up beyond that. Villar’s career is, to this point, essentially a Celta Vigo story: a Spanish goalkeeper with a sustained league presence at one club, built more on longevity than noise.
