The last day of the Real Betis transfer market was very eventful, with the arrival of Dani Ceballos and the departure of one of the pearls from the youth academy, Pablo García. José Antonio Morante, a 19-year-old winger, is another emblem of the Andalusian factory and has a €30 million release clause after renewing this summer until June 2030. The player turned down interests from other clubs and will continue as part of the first-team dynamics, being called up for the match against Real Madrid this Friday.

José Antonio Morante gains importance at Real Betis

The renewal was made official on July 13, 2026, when Betis extended the contract by two more seasons, now expiring in 2030. The new contract extends their relationship and acknowledges the winger's progress during the previous season.

Morante ended the 2025/26 season with 7 goals for Betis B and another 7 with the U19 top-level team. Additionally, he scored 1 goal and provided 1 assist in the Youth Spanish Cup final.

His performance extended to the Spanish national team as well. Morante was the 2026 U19 European Champion and finished as the tournament's top scorer with 4 goals, solidifying his position in Betis' plans.

The winger had already debuted with the first team last season in the Europa League against PAOK. Officially, he has made 2 appearances in the European competition and played 2 Copa del Rey matches since joining the senior team.

Information from Gonzalo Tortosa now places Morante's clause at €30 million and notes that the player turned down offers over the summer. Betis, on the other hand, has chosen to keep him within the first-team structure.

Pablo García departs, Morante takes up space in the squad

Pablo García's situation sheds light on the current scenario. The 20-year-old forward left Betis at the market's closure to join Racing de Santander, having played 33 matches and scored 3 goals for the senior team.

Additionally, Betis retains a stake in Pablo García's future sale and a right of refusal. The departure came after several weeks of interest from clubs like Hull City and Olympiacos.

Morante has followed a different path. The club renewed his contract until 2030 before the season started, including him in Manuel Pellegrini's plans as the coaching staff evaluated which youth players could remain in the professional loop.

Now, the next step is clear: Pellegrini confirmed Morante will be called up for the match against Real Madrid, the fourth round of LaLiga scheduled for September 4, 2026. It will be his first official chance of the season to get playing time with the senior team.

The evolution of José Antonio Morante over the upcoming months will determine if this presence becomes a steady role. With a €30 million clause and a contract until 2030, Real Betis has set conditions to protect its investment while the winger aims to establish himself in La Liga.
