The inside track on the football stories that matter
Leeds United midfielder Marc Roca is in advanced talks with Real Betis about a permanent deal to join the club,The 27-year-old spent last season on loan at the La Liga side, and after that deal expires at the end of June, a permanent move is expected to be completed by next week.
Roca is expected to be the first permanent departure from Elland Road this summer, ending his two-year spell with the club. His contract with the Whites expires in 2026, but his two-year spell with the West Yorkshire club is likely to come to an end before that. He had been a regular in his first season with the club, playing 32 times in the Premier League, but he departed for his loan move before playing a game in the Championship.Roca evidently did enough to impress Manuel Pellegrini last season if the Spanish outfit is pushing to bring him back on a full-time basis.
The midfielder made 37 appearances across all competitions and became a mainstay in the Real Betis squad in the league and in Europe.Join the Football Insider WhatsApp channel to get all our exclusives and the breaking transfer news FIRST.
