Real Betis Making Progress in Marc Roca Transfer Deal
Sources have revealed that Real Betis are making significant progress in their efforts to secure the services of Marc Roca on a permanent transfer from Leeds United. The 27-year-old midfielder is currently playing for the La Liga side on loan after leaving Leeds on a temporary deal following their relegation from the Premier League last summer.
Despite Leeds occupying third place in the Championship, which leads to promotion playoffs, Roca reportedly has no intention of returning to Elland Road. Instead, he is eager to make his stay at the Estadio Benito Villamarin a permanent arrangement and has already instructed his agent to find a way to make it happen.
Roca has been an integral part of the Betis squad, featuring in all 18 La Liga games they’ve played so far, starting 16 times and making one appearance off the bench. His significance to Manuel Pellegrini’s side is evident as he has made a total of 25 appearances in all competitions in the 2023/24 season, contributing four goals and two assists.
The move to Betis has clearly been a positive one for Roca, who has thrived in the La Liga environment and become an important player for the Spanish club.
Despite Leeds’ potential return to the Premier League, Roca seems determined to remain in Spain and continue his development at Real Betis. His impressive performances have caught the eye of the club, and they are now working towards securing his long-term future at the Estadio Benito Villamarin.
The news of Betis’ progress in the transfer deal will come as a blow to Leeds United, who had hoped to bring Roca back into the fold for their potential return to the top-flight. However, it appears that the midfielder has set his sights on a permanent move to Betis and is committed to making it a reality.
As negotiations progress, all parties involved will be hoping to reach an agreement that satisfies everyone. Betis will be eager to secure Roca’s services on a permanent basis, while Leeds United will be looking to secure a deal that is financially beneficial for the club.
For now, Roca continues to impress in La Liga, and his performances will only increase the determination of Real Betis to secure his long-term future at the club. As the transfer saga unfolds, football fans will be eagerly awaiting the final outcome of this intriguing story.
