A disappointing season for Betis
Betis’ season has been somewhat disappointing for fans. The team led by Manuel Pellegrini failed to meet expectations by being prematurely eliminated from the Europa League, one of the great objectives of this year. In addition, they suffered a defeat in their first Conference League game. In LaLiga, they also had difficulties and had to fight until the last game to ensure their presence in European competition.
Betis thinks about next season
Despite the negative results this season, Chilean coach Manuel Pellegrini is already thinking about the future. His main goal is to do well in the Conference League next season. To achieve this, the team needs new faces and strengthen some positions, especially in defense. According to reports, Pellegrini has asked the sports management to sign Diego Llorente.
Diego Llorente returns to Leeds United
After spending a year on loan at Roma, Diego Llorente must return to Leeds United. The English club signed the Spanish defender from Real Sociedad in the summer of 2020. Although he had a good debut season, a serious injury interrupted his progression. Now, Leeds could see Llorente as an opportunity to raise funds and create salary space for signings that will help them gain promotion to the Premier League.
Betis takes the lead in negotiations for Diego Llorente
Despite rumors linking Diego Llorente with a possible return to Roma, it appears that Betis have taken the lead in negotiations. According to reports, the club has shown interest in signing the Spanish defender to strengthen its squad for next season. A transfer to Betis could benefit all parties involved: Leeds United would get funds, Betis would get a quality player and Llorente would have the opportunity to return to his best level.
In summary, Betis is looking to strengthen its squad for next season after a disappointing season. The objective is to do a good job in the Conference League and improve their performance in LaLiga. The signing of Diego Llorente could be a great addition to strengthen the team’s defense. Negotiations are underway and Betis appear to be taking the lead in the race to sign the Spanish defender.
