Club career
[edit]Born in Zamora, Castile and León, Cela started his football career at Real Valladolid's youth team and was eventually noticed by Real Madrid who signed him for their reserve team. He made his La Liga debut with Sporting Gijón.
After two seasons in Gijón, he found himself jumping from club to club each season, including a spell in FC Barcelona's reserve team, until he eventually settled at Dutch side RKC Waalwijk where he ended his career in 1999 after two seasons.
