Real Betis set to sign Brazilian defender Natan from Napoli for €8m- Report
Real Betis set to sign Brazilian defender Natan from Napoli for €8m- Report (Image Source: Getty Images) Real Betis Balompié is about to acquire the permanent services of Brazilian defender Natan from Società Sportiva Calcio Napoli for €8 million, according to sources. The Spanish club is set to exercise the buyout option they have in the loan agreement, allowing the 24-year-old centre-back to sign a deal until 2029. Natan has shown his worth during the season, playing in 39 matches at the Benito Villamarín Stadium and scoring two goals and two assists. Brazilian defender proves worth during successful loan stint at Real Betis Balompié Since joining on loan from Napoli in 2024, Natan has been crucial to Manuel Pellegrini's plan for defence. The Brazilian has stood out in European matches, helping Real Betis Balompié win over KAA Gent and Vitoria de Guimaraes in the UEFA Conference League . Even with Diego Llorente and Marc Bartra competing for spots, Natan's versatility and technique made the Verdiblancos' sporting department decide to keep him on a permanent contract. Natan was signed by Napoli from Red Bull Bragantino in Brazil for €10 million in the summer of 2023, but he found it hard to adjust in Italy. Moving the team to Seville gave Inter Milan a €2 million loss, but it also brought them extra funds to use in the transfer window.

Barcelona drops points in 1-1 draw vs Betis
Barcelona spurned a golden chance to extend their lead to six points clear of its direct pursuer and rival Real Madrid, who suffered a surprising 2-1 home defeat to Valencia in the 30th round of the Spanish Football League. At the Olympic Stadium, Lluís Companys, in front of 47,043 spectators, Barcelona took the lead through Gavi (7), before Betis quickly equalised thanks to Brazilian Natan (17). Nine consecutive matches Barcelona, who had won nine consecutive La Liga matches before this draw and had not lost since the beginning of the year, raised their tally to 67 points, occupying first place, four points ahead of Real Madrid, before hosting Borussia Dortmund in the first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals four days later. Meanwhile, Betis, with their eighth draw of the season, moved temporarily up to fifth place with 48 points, ahead of sixth-placed Villarreal (47), who face fourth-placed Athletic Bilbao with 53 points.

🚨 Barcelona drop critical points at home against Real Betis
Barcelona will be left frustrated after dropping points against visiting Real Betis in a 1-1 draw at Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys. Scorers: Gavi 7'; Natan 17' In the wake of Real Madrid's critical stumble in a 2-1 home loss against Valencia, Barça had a real chance to establish a firm lead at the top of the La Liga table with just eight matches remaining after the weekend. Advertisement Hansi Flick's men would get off to just the right start in front of home support when Gavi netted after just seven minutes against a club he previously spent time with at youth level. But Betis would claw back level just ten minutes later thanks to a bullet header from Brazilian defender Natan after he did well to meet Giovani Lo Celso's corner. Much like in Madrid, Catalunya would witness the home side look the far better of the two on display, but despite their advantage, Barça failed in their attempt at pulling back ahead before the halftime interval. It was much of the same from Barcelona after the break, with Manuel Pellegrini's Verdiblancos struggling to create much while Barça turned the screw time and again. Advertisement Spanish starlet Lamine Yamal so nearly found a late goal to finally put Barcelona ahead in the 88th minute, but Betis reacted quickly to block his effort in the wake of Fermín López's ball across goal being parried away by Betis shot-stopper Adrián. With that result, Barcelona still extend their lead at the top to four points over their bitter rivals but have left the door open just enough as the season rages on. Betis will feel lucky to secure a point on their travels, too, and will hope for a Villarreal loss at home against Athletic Club on Sunday. 📸 JOSEP LAGO - AFP or licensors

Barcelona held by Betis, miss chance to extend league lead
April 5 (Reuters) - Barcelona spurned the chance to extend their lead at the top of the LaLiga standings when they were held at home 1-1 by Real Betis on Saturday, with visiting defender Natan cancelling out Gavi's early opener. The draw moves Hansi Flick's Barca on to 67 points, four ahead of rivals Real Madrid who slumped to a 2-1 defeat at home by Valencia earlier on Saturday, while Betis climbed to fifth on 48 points. The hosts had been given further motivation by Real's shocking loss and had a great start when Gavi opened the scoring from close range, brilliantly assisted by Ferran Torres seven minutes after kickoff. However, Natan headed the equaliser from a corner in the 17th minute and though they dominated, Barca could not find a way past 38-year-old goalkeeper Adrian.
