Naranjo also scored seven goals in a period of three months (between January and March 2016), including match-winners against CD Tenerife and Elche CF. On 1 May, he scored a brace in a 3–2 home win against Mirandés.[6]

In June 2016, Naranjo signed a five-year deal with La Liga club Celta de Vigo, for a rumoured fee of €1 million.[7] He only appeared in three matches for the club, two in the UEFA Europa League, before departing.
