A French international is preparing to open a new chapter in his career.
After 5 years of good and loyal service, Nabil Fekir should leave Betis Sevilla next summer. According to information from L’Équipe, the 2018 world champion should put an end to his Andalusian adventure to open a new chapter in his career.
Fekir arrived at Betis in 2019 from his training club, Olympique Lyonnais, where he had spent most of his professional life until then. Praised for his technical quality and elegance, the attacking midfielder quickly emerged as one of the darlings of the Sevillian public, but recent seasons have slowed his progress.
Why Fekir will leave Betis
The Team specifies the reasons for this upcoming move for Fekir. The French international would notably be a victim of competition from Isco, whose tactical role as playmaker is in the same register as his own. Above all, Fekir was weighed down by repeated physical problems, including a rupture of the cruciate ligament in his left knee in February 2023, a year ago.
Finally, the need for Betis Seville, in the grip of great financial difficulties, to sell its most “bankable” assets would be a final explanation for this turnaround in the situation for one of the club’s major players. Whatever happens, Nabil Fekir will leave excellent memories at Betis Sevilla.
