Real Betis to sign Barcelona defender and former Barcelona defender as pair arrive in Seville
Real Betis have lost two central defenders this summer, but look set to continue their links with Barcelona as two La Masia-formed central defenders have arrived in the Andalusian capital in order to sign on the dotted line.
Marc Bartra looks set to return to Betis just a year after leaving, having rescinded his deal with Trabzonspor. The Turkish giants are cutting costs and Bartra is unlikely to be pricey for Betis, who will sign him to a two-year deal with an option for a third, as per MD.
The 32-year-old will be joined by 20-year-old Moroccan central defender Chadi Riad. He made his debut for Barcelona briefly against Osasuna last season, but looks capable and has been called up to the Morocco squad on several occasions.
