Ilaix Moriba, born on 19 January 2003 (age 23), is a Guinean central midfielder with Celta Vigo. His game has been built around the middle of the pitch rather than the edges of it, and his recent record in Spain gives a clearer picture of a player settling into regular senior football.
His most productive league season came in 2025-2026, when he scored two goals in 36 appearances for Celta Vigo. That was a decent body of work for a midfielder still shaping the harder parts of his career, away from early promise and into the more unforgiving business of weekly usefulness.
In 2026-2027, he has made 11 LaLiga appearances and scored once, along with two Europa League appearances. Across all competitions for Celta Vigo that season, he stands on 13 appearances and one goal. At this stage, his profile is straightforward: a developing Guinean midfielder getting regular minutes at a serious level.
