How was Carlos Vela debut in the Premier League

Carlos Vela was in the youth divisions, when he attracted the interest of several European clubs and eventually Arsenal won the race by signing in November 2005, with a five-year contract for a fee of £ 125,000 that would rise to £ 550,000 after playing 50 games for the first team.

However, as English work permit restrictions for non-EU citizens prevented him from playing in England, Arsenal quickly loaned him out to Spanish club Celta de Vigo in February 2006, but he was immediately returned with no games played.

Carlos Vela made his competitive debut as a professional footballer for Arsenal on August 30, 2008 in his Premier League match against Newcastle United, replacing Robin van Persie in the 63rd minute. Arsenal won the match 3-0, and sadly, 27 minutes were not enough to show the potential that everyone would know later.

Three match-dates later, he made his full debut against Sheffield United in the League Cup, and it was then that Carlos Vela scored a hat-trick in the 6-0 victory, with the peculiarity that his second goal was voted as one. of the 50 most important goals of Arsenal. The match was also noted for featuring Arsenal's youngest team, with an average age of 19.
