Borja Iglesias will return to Manuel Pellegrini’s command this Tuesday, although the Galician striker is aware that the Chile coach is almost without him and the club is looking for a way for him in this transfer market, after he left in January for Bayer Leverkusen, where he won the Bundesliga and the German Cup, although he failed to score a goal.
Both the president of Real Betis, Ángel Haro, and the sports director, Manu Fajardo, clarified this Monday, in the presentation of Iker Losada and Marc Roca, that the name of Borja Iglesias is one of those on the market, with a starting price of 8 million euros, a set on Bayer Leverkusen’s purchase option, which was ultimately not exercised.
“There are always movements. The market has been open for a long time and sports management is very active and when a possible option comes for a player, we sit down with the player to analyze the situation and see if it is convenient for him and the club”, explained Ángel Haro this Monday in reference to the future of Borja Iglesias. “We are in that process,” he added.
Manu Fajardo, sports director of the green and white club, emphasized that “the market in the end leads you to situations that sometimes you foresee and other times you do not.” Focusing on the situation of the Santiago striker, whom Celta intends to replace Larsen, he explained that “regarding Borja Iglesias, along with other players from the entity, we are ready to listen to proposals.” “If something is presented that is beneficial for all parties, we will be happy. We will sit down and analyze,” said Manu Fajardo.
Isco and Bakambu will not go to the first stage
Real Betis sports director Manu Fajardo confirmed this Monday that all Real Betis first team players with contracts will go to the preseason stage that starts this Wednesday in Austrian lands, except for Isco and Bakambu who will continue in Sevilla who are recovering from respective injuries that prevented them from finishing last season.
Marc Bartra, who is in the final stage of recovery from his Achilles tendon injury, will go to the first stage, as well as Borja Iglesias, Juanmi and Alex Collado, players who in principle do not fit into Manuel Pellegrini’s plans.
