Real Betis have activated their machinery in search of new reinforcements for the 2025/26 season. The verdiblanco team wants young talent, but with experience in top-level dynamics. In that process, they've set their sights on an FC Barcelona player who has gone unnoticed this season.
He is a footballer with potential and commitment, but he has barely had any minutes under Hansi Flick's management. Although his performance in training has been consistent, internal competition has closed all doors for him. The lack of opportunities has sparked the interest of several teams, including Betis.

Betis looks for opportunities in the big clubs
The sporting management of the Seville club believes there is undervalued talent in the big squads. Especially in academies like Barça's, where many players stagnate due to a lack of space in the elite. This profile fits perfectly into that strategy of low-risk, high-potential signings.
Betis's idea is clear: they want a player who arrives hungry, with something to prove, and who can break out in a less demanding environment. That's why they've started informal contacts with the blaugrana footballer's entourage. The goal is to bring him in on a loan with a purchase option.

From the verdiblanco coaching staff, led by Manuel Pellegrini, they believe the player would fit well in their model. He has mobility, associative ability, and a nose for goal in the final yards. Although he still needs to mature, his profile adapts to the combination play that characterizes the Andalusian team.
At Benito Villamarín they believe that giving him continuity in minutes and trust could be the key to his breakthrough. This isn't an immediate bet, but an investment in the present and future. That's why they're considering a loan with an affordable purchase clause if he performs as they expect.

A season without spotlight or opportunities
During this campaign, the player has been in the shadow of more established teammates. His role has been completely marginal, limited to training and occasional drafts without ever having real prominence. He hasn't even managed to secure a stable spot in the rotations.
Despite that, he hasn't caused any noise or controversy. He has always kept a professional attitude, focused on improving and waiting for his opportunity. However, that opportunity never came, and that's why he welcomes a change of scenery.

Betis doesn't want to miss the chance to bring in a profile with Barça DNA and room for improvement. Their idea is to offer him minutes from day one, without great pressure but with high expectations. If the player responds well, they could execute the purchase option before the end of the season.
At Heliópolis they believe the context is ideal for the footballer to loosen up and display his full potential. Surrounded by players like Isco or Fornals, he would learn every day and gain confidence. In addition, Betis offers stability, a good atmosphere, and competitive ambition.
A necessary change for everyone
At Barça they also welcome his departure. They believe he doesn't have a place in the short term, and that gaining experience elsewhere may be the best option. Although they still trust his abilities, they know he needs continuity to evolve.
The loan would allow the club to free up salary space and keep betting on more established profiles. Meanwhile, they'd keep an option to bring the player back in case of a breakthrough. Everyone wins with this operation, as long as the footballer takes the step.
Pau Víctor is considering leaving | @FCBarcelona
The footballer in question is Pau Víctor. The forward, loaned this season to Barça Atlètic, has been one of the forgotten names in the first team's planning. Now, Betis wants to give him a new opportunity to show his worth in LaLiga.
