One in, two out: Real Betis defensive plans become clear ahead of summer transfer window

A position in their team that Real Betis will revolutionize this summer is at left-back. It has become a problem for Manuel Pellegrini – Juan Miranda is set to leave when his contract expires at the end of the season, and Abner Vinicius has struggled since arriving from Brazil last January.

As it turns out, both players are on track to leave in the summer, with Abner on track to join Lyon. They got almost as much as they paid for him, which is good news for Betis, considering their level of performance over the last 12 months.

With two recognized missing full-backs leaving, Betis are desperate to sign someone, and that player appears to be Las Palmas' Sergi Cardona, who himself will be available as a free agent this summer. AS Diary have reported that Los Verdiblancos have stepped up their interest in signing him.

Cardona would be an excellent addition for The Real Betis, although it is far from a done deal that he will go to the Benito Villamarin. Other clubs are keen, so it could be a race against time to shake things up.
