The normal thing is that it is your compatriot Guilhermestarting goalkeeper for Betis Deportivo, who promote to the first teambut, for example, youth squad Germán traveled to Valladolid to accompany Adrián and Fran Vieites as the third goalkeeper. There are no plans, at least at this time, to advance the incorporation of Álvaro Valleswith whom Betis already has an agreement for next summer, the current January market.

We have maximum confidence in the squad we have. We are recovering players like Isco and as long as the market is open, we have to work 200 percent.”he warned in conclusion.
