Betis, which is negotiating the sale of Luiz Felipe to West Ham, needs to sign central defenders after the departures of Víctor Ruiz and Edgar González. Although he is close to getting Marc Bartra, who would thus return to the Verdiblanco team, he is also negotiating with Barcelona to get Chadi Riad on loan.
Ramón Planes knows the 20-year-old central defender perfectly from his time at the Catalan club. Without a place in the first team, Barcelona would welcome the fact that Chadi Riad could join Betis and thus accumulate experience in the First Division.
In addition to the Barça team, the Andalusian team is negotiating with Real Madrid to get Rafa Marín on loan, another central defender without a place in the first team of the Merengue team.
Betis has already taken Álex Collado from Barcelona
Álex Collado, who this last season has played on loan at Elche and the previous one at Granada, has definitively left Barcelona with the letter of freedom under his arm. The Barça team has thus facilitated his signing for Betis at zero cost, although in exchange they will reserve 30 percent of a future sale. As regards Chadi Riad, he would join the Verdiblanco team on loan and without the option to buy.
Going back to Álex Collado, he has played a total of 17 games with Elche this season and has scored one goal. In his previous campaign with Granada he also played 17 games and scored two goals.
