Source-derived summary

Celta de Vigo participated in La Liga, Copa del Rey and the UEFA Cup in the 2002-03 season, for the first time qualifying for the UEFA Champions League, thanks to a fourth-placed finish in La Liga. This was the crown of the work former coach Víctor Fernández had put in to establish Celta as a credible force, and it was under Miguel Ángel Lotina's leadership the club reached the ultimate level of the "Euro Celta" era.
