Sofyan Amrabat, who was left out of the squad by Fenerbahçe at the start of the season, has once again drawn attention with his performance in Spain. Having left his injury period behind, the Moroccan midfielder has found his rhythm in a Betis jersey. As plans for the new season are being made for the yellow-navy team, the futures of players sent out on loan are also being closely examined.
WORLD CUP PRESSURE ON TRANSFER
According to reports in the Spanish press, the Betis management is working intensively on the permanent transfer of Amrabat. The Andalusian representative, believing that the market value of the player, who will appear in the 2026 World Cup with the Moroccan National Team, could rise further during the tournament, wants to finalize the transfer quickly.
Real Betis has set a schedule for taking concrete steps. Accordingly, negotiations are being conducted to sign a new contract with Amrabat and make the transfer official just before the World Cup, which will begin on June 11.
BETIS SIDE IS PERSISTENT
According to information obtained, the Spanish team met with Amrabat's agent in recent days and conveyed a request for a reduction in his annual salary. In addition to this, Betis is also pushing for a reduction in the 12 million euro transfer fee set by Fenerbahçe.
The main reason for the acceleration of the transfer process is the possibility that the player's value will multiply after a likely good performance in the World Cup. For this reason, while Betis wants to conclude the negotiations before the tournament begins, the final decision will depend on the talks between the parties and the stance that Fenerbahçe will take.
