Real Betis is already starting to plan the next season, and one of its priorities will strengthen the left side of its defense. Despite Ricardo Rodríguez securing a starting position since his arrival in winter, the sports management led by Manu Fajardo believes this is a position that needs an upgrade. In this context, the name of Carlos Romero has begun to be strongly linked as a possible reinforcement for the 2025/26 campaign.

Villarreal Doesn't Know What to Do with Him Yet

The 23-year-old promising left-back, who belongs to Villarreal, is standing out on loan at Espanyol. So far this season, he has played 22 games, scoring two goals and providing an assist. His performance at Espanyol has not gone unnoticed and has aroused the interest of several clubs, including Betis, who are closely monitoring his progress.

As reported by MundoDeportivo, the main obstacle to his transfer is his contract with Villarreal, valid until 2027. Despite his excellent performance in the Second Division, his future will depend on the decision of Marcelino García Toral, who will have to assess whether to include him in the first team or let him go in the upcoming transfer window. Additionally, there has been interest from Germany in signing him, which could further complicate his potential move to Heliópolis.
