Lionel Messi wants the jewel from Betis at Inter Miami

Pablo García has become one of the most surprising names in the Real Betis market. The attacker from the Verdiblanca academy, considered one of the great talents of Heliópolis, is in the spotlight despite having shown in several appearances with the first team that he has more than enough talent to compete for a place.

The situation has taken many Beticos by surprise. The club would be willing to consider a sale close to 10 million euros, always reserving a high percentage of any future deal. Ajax and Inter Miami have already made moves, but the MLS side seems the most determined, driven by direct monitoring from Leo Messi.

A jewel Betis may sacrifice

Pablo García represents one of those cases that always spark debate in an academy club. Trained at Betis from a very young age, the forward has progressed through the ranks to become one of the most promising players in the Verdiblanca structure.

His name started gaining strength due to his numbers in youth categories, where he left very striking goal records and performances of great personality. He also managed to debut with the first team, a symbolic step for a player who has always been seen as one of the great hopes from the academy.

However, Betis' current situation calls for tough decisions. The club needs to generate income, balance the books, and reinforce several positions for a season of maximum demand. In that context, a sale of Pablo García may appear as a quick way to make money without touching already established pieces of the squad.

The operation, however, is painful. Selling a homegrown talent always leaves an uncomfortable feeling, especially if the player has not yet had a real and continuous opportunity with the first team.

That's why the formula would include a high percentage of a future sale. Betis does not want to completely lose the economic control of a player who, if successful elsewhere, could multiply his value in a few years.

Ajax and Inter Miami come into play

Ajax's interest makes sense. The Dutch club has been specializing in young talent development for decades and Pablo García fits perfectly into that model. Amsterdam could offer him playing time, competitive training, and a top-level European showcase.

For the player, Ajax would be a very attractive option from a sports perspective. A historic club, accustomed to betting on young talents and with an offensive style that could favor his growth.

However, Inter Miami seems to have taken the lead. The American club has intensified its monitoring and would be ready to make a strong move to convince Betis and the player.

The presence of Leo Messi changes any conversation. The fact that the Argentinian has requested or endorsed the tracking of Pablo García elevates the interest to another dimension. It is not just a sporting bet, but also an operation with a very powerful media component.

Inter Miami is looking for young talent that can grow around big figures and become a future asset. Pablo fits into that strategy: projection, quality, room for improvement, and a still manageable price for an ambitious franchise.

A delicate decision for Heliópolis

Betis faces a complex decision. On one hand, earning 10 million for a homegrown player who is not yet established in the first team could be an interesting operation. On the other hand, selling a player with so much talent too soon could end up being a difficult mistake to explain.

The fans look at the case with concern. Beticos have always valued homegrown players, and Pablo García has the qualities to connect with the stands. His possible departure before consolidating raises doubts about the real role of the academy in the project.

There is also the player's will. If Inter Miami or Ajax offer him a clear plan, playing time, and confidence, the temptation will be significant. At his age, he needs to play and feel like a protagonist, not get stuck between the reserve team and sporadic appearances.

Betis will try to protect itself with that future percentage, but the feeling is that the market has already identified an opportunity. Pablo García is up for sale, Inter Miami is pressing, and Ajax is watching. Heliópolis, meanwhile, debates whether it is facing a good economic deal or the possible premature loss of a star.
