Celta Vigo have snapped up Sevilla attacker Nolito for the remainder of the season.

Celta have signed Nolito to the end of the current campaign, coughing up a minimal fee to Sevilla for the forward.

He arrives as a replacement for long-term injury victim Sergio Alvarez.

It means a return to Vigo for Nolito, who left Celta three years ago for Manchester City before signing for Sevilla.

Celta made an attempt for Nolito last summer, but Julen Lopetegui blocked the deal after being impressed by the striker during Sevilla's preseason.
