There are three fronts that Antonio Cordón is keeping open in this last month of the transfer market in terms of arrivals. One is that of Hector Bellerin, which will sooner or later end up returning to Heliopolis and for which they have already reserved their locker in the Verdiblanco locker room. Another is that of Daniel Ceballos. His arrival is, a priori, the most complicated, because Real Madrid do not renounce their claims despite being the seventh midfielder in the rotations of the white spinal cord and continue to claim 10 million euros for his departure.
For the moment, it is not the priority of Anthony Cordón, as the Utrera man still has a year left on his contract with Real Madrid and he would arrive for free next summer. And the third open facade is that of Houssem Aouarfor which Antonio Cordón has been negotiating for some time with Olympique de Lyon, who have valued their footballer at 20 million euros, agreeing to lower this figure if finally Guillaume Carvalho He agrees to complete the deal as there are fewer and fewer suitors left for the Betis midfielder.
The sports management of Helipolitan does not want to delay the Aouar, because as the end of the market approaches, new suitors will appear for the French, which is already happening. In recent days there has been a great deal of interest from Leicester cityalthough you must first get rid of Tielemans oh Maddisonwith Chelsea and Newcastle pressing for the right playmaker who drove the Sevilla defense crazy in the recent friendly.
But in recent hours, he has also joined the race for Aouar on Nottingham Forest, who curiously also wants the verdiblanco Álex Moreno. The ‘Forest’, after going up to the premier leaguedoes not want to struggle to achieve permanence, for which he has already passed 95 million euroshas also set his sights on the talented French midfielder, increasing the competition for a Betiswho despite being the footballer himself, also likes to embark on an adventure in the Premier League, then the Verdiblancos should hurry not to see how the mighty pound will end up taking Aouar away from him.
The Betis speaks with LO and they keep talking about quantitieswhich vary whether or not he enters Guillaume Carvalho in the pact, but, with the commitment of his group of young people not to listen to others and to wait for the Verdiblancos, he thought to play a little with the deadlines to lower the final cost. However, the scenario has changed and when unwanted guests join the party, on the ground floor of the Coliseum La Palmera, they think it is better to settle the contract even before the Bellerin so as not to remain calm and without a “girlfriend” in case the Thai owner of Leicester or the prosperous “Forest” put too many zeros in their ears to make the other two parties involved doubt.
