Antonio Cordón works to reinforce the rear from which up to four or five players can come out this coming summer

TO waiting to know if he achieves a continental place for the next season, something that would have an impact on both the economic availability to make hires and the sports needs by having to face three different competitions, the Betis now look to the summer market with a priority: to strengthen its defense.

Antonio Cordon, general sports director of the Verdiblanco club, knows that the back of the team he leads Manuel Pellegrini is where more movements could occur, so, together with the professionals of the Technical secretary, studies profiles, analyzes costs and carries out different conversations to have ready the spare parts that the campus may need.

Emerson, Miranda and Barça

On the right side it is more than likely to come out Emerson, Since the Barcelona He has a buyback option set at nine million euros that he will foreseeably execute before deciding whether to incorporate the Brazilian into the discipline of the team he leads Koeman or if you decide to cash with it. MontoyaDespite his lack of prominence this season, he has a long-term contract and it does not seem that changing clubs is in his plans, so the Verdiblancos would need to sign a player for the position.

On the left side, history repeats itself. The Barcelona can unilaterally execute a two-year contract extension of Juan Miranda so that he joins his first staff with a salary already established previously. The intention of the Betis would be to get the footballer of Olive groves if the Catalan club does not extend its relationship or try to negotiate a new loan if it carries out this automatic renewal, although it is still an operation still in the air. Like the future of Alex Moreno, with offers to go to the League 1 French.

Mandi, on the way to Villarreal

In the center of the rear, the Betis the renovation of Victor Ruiz, which has earned the confidence of the coaching staff, and also has Bartra, with a contract for two more seasons. For Sidnei, with little prominence and only one more year signed, everything indicates that he will listen to offers. And it is given for lost Mandi, which ends the contract on June 30 and will leave Villarreal.

Taking into account that a Pellegrini He is not overly convinced by the options he has in the quarry to reinforce these positions, the Betis comb the market in search of a central who arrives to fight to be a starter with Bartra Y Victor Ruiz, and analyzes different options of young players who could reach the Benito Villamarin on loan.

There are two left in the goal

The last decision regarding the defensive section of the team has to do with the goal. With portuguese Rui Silva booked and confirmation by Pellegrini about what Claudio Bravo will continue next season, it remains to be seen what the decision is regarding the other two goalkeepers who have a current contract, Joel robles Y Dani Martin. A planning that will accelerate as soon as it ends The league or the Betis know whether or not to return to Europe.
