La Liga
The name of Natan has become one of the most talked-about in Spanish football a month before the winter transfer market. The Brazilian center-back from Real Betis is experiencing a stellar moment that has captured the attention of three clubs with urgent defensive needs: Leeds United, Everton, and Juventus.
The Green and Whites could lose the Brazilian central defender, who has played 18 games at the start of this season in all competitions.
Natan, Real Betis's surprise
Natan's breakthrough at Real Betis has been as decisive as it was unexpected. The Brazilian quickly established himself in Manuel Pellegrini's starting eleven, and his performances have positioned him as one of the most reliable center-backs in LaLiga. His authority in duels, ability to anticipate, and composure on the ball have raised his value in a few months. This growth explains why Leeds United, Everton, and Juventus have started monitoring the player for January.
Real Betis is somewhat surprised by the impact of the defender, who arrived in the summer at a modest cost and has played 14 games with admirable consistency. At the Benito Villamarín, they acknowledge that his room for improvement is significant, but they also understand that his good form would attract international interest sooner or later.

Juventus and the race for Natan
Juventus was the first European giant to make a move. The Turin club is undergoing a profound renewal process in defense and is looking for a center-back with immediate potential. Natan fits that profile. Despite being 24 years old, his competitive maturity makes him an attractive option for a team that needs to regain solidity in Serie A.
Juventus' interest has been growing in recent weeks, and reports from Italy suggest they are ready to make a formal offer in January. It won't be a cheap operation. The Real Betis environment believes that any negotiation would start at around 40 million euros, a sum that reflects his rise in the market. However, Juventus is not alone in the race, and this is where Premier League interest shifts the landscape.
Leeds United and Everton increase the pressure
In England, Leeds United has been analyzing center-backs to strengthen its defensive structure, and Natan is among the top priorities. His profile fits a league that demands strength, defensive reading, and clean build-up play from the back. Sources close to the club claim that preliminary contacts have already taken place as the market opening approaches.
Meanwhile, Everton has also placed the Brazilian on its agenda. The Liverpool team is looking for a defender who can provide immediate solidity and grow within the project. Natan meets both requirements. The sports management values his performance in LaLiga and his physical attributes, especially his aerial prowess, a highly coveted attribute in the Premier League.
With Leeds United and Everton ready to compete, the battle for the center-back takes on a different hue. For Natan, the possibility of making a leap to the Premier League becomes appealing, while Juventus offers a more traditional path to the elite of European football.
A decisive winter market
The approaching winter market adds urgency to the operation. Real Betis will have to decide whether to keep one of Pellegrini's key players or take advantage of the strong interest to secure a historic sale. Everything will depend on the formal offers and the player's stance, who is currently experiencing the peak of his career.
One thing is clear: Natan has become one of the key figures of the upcoming month. His growth, the ambition of Leeds United and Everton, and the appeal of Juventus ensure a scenario as intense as it is uncertain. The Brazilian center-back will undoubtedly be one of the stars of the approaching winter market.
