Natan, a 25-year-old Brazilian center-back, is one of the best signings of Real Betis, but he could end up leaving the club during this summer transfer window if an offer of 35 million euros arrives. The club sees his sale as one of the main ways to increase its investment margin and strengthen Manuel Pellegrini's forward line.

The Verdiblanco entity has already received proposals for the defender, but none have come close so far to that valuation. The set price exceeds by 10 million the 25 million market value that the player currently holds.

Real Betis sets Natan's price at 35 million

Real Betis accepts that Natan may leave the squad despite his importance for Manuel Pellegrini. The rationale is financial: a high transfer fee would allow the club to carry out operations that would be more challenging without resorting to options like a loan with a purchase option.

Estadio Deportivo confirms that the sports management has set a reference of 35 million euros. The proposals received so far have fallen far short of that amount and have not led to a change in stance at the Verdiblanco offices.

The operation would also represent a significant capital gain. Betis activated a buy option last summer for 9.5 million euros for the Brazilian and still has around 7.5 million pending amortization on that signing.

The growth in his valuation supports the strategy. Natan started the 2025/26 season with an appraisal close to 9 million and currently stands at 25 million, following several upward revisions. Natan is on the radar of very important clubs; Barcelona recently explored signing him.

Natan sets two conditions to accept a transfer

The decision does not only hinge on a club willing to pay the 35 million. Natan has also set two conditions to leave Seville: a significant improvement in his current salary and joining a project that competes at the highest sporting level.

This second requirement narrows down the market significantly. The defender wants to stay in one of the main European leagues and compete in continental competitions, so proposals from destinations with higher salary potential but lower sporting appeal have little chance of convincing him.

Betis qualifying for the Champions League raises the bar. Pellegrini's team will return to the top European competition 21 years later, so the player only considers giving up that scenario if the next destination offers improvements both financially and sportingly.

The sale would impact Manuel Pellegrini's planning

The repercussions of a departure would directly affect the planning. Betis aims to increase its investment capacity to sign a forward and fill other positions in a squad that will compete in LaLiga and also in the Champions League calendar.

Without the sale, the club would need to adjust the economic profile of their offensive targets. Obtaining between 30 and 35 million for the center-back would provide a different margin during the final weeks of the market.

However, Betis is not compelled to part ways with the player. If no proposal meets the club's valuation or doesn't comply with the personal conditions set by Natan, the Brazilian will remain in the squad and start the season with a contract until June 2030. The next offer approaching 35 million will determine whether the deal truly enters its decisive phase.
