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.

Soccer Club Strikes Back At Climate Crisis With Algae-Powered Uniform
Spanish top-flight soccer club Real Betis Balompié has launched a new uniform made from an unexpected material ― the invasive algae, Rugulopteryx okamurae, that, due to climate change, is posing an increasing threat to the ecosystem of the Mediterranean Sea and beyond. The Seville-based La Liga team, currently mid-table, unveiled its uniform (including recycled ocean plastics) last week in the southern Spanish coastal town of Tarifa, whose coastline has been hit by the ecological invader, according to the club. Divers symbolically retrieved the message-sending jerseysfrom the seabed ahead of their presentation. Betis players will wear the uniform for Sunday's clash with Real Sociedad. 'The presence of invasive algae on our coasts is destroying our ecosystem,' the club wrote on Instagram. 'To confront them, the first kit made with fibers created from these algae was born.' The brown algae are native to the North Pacific Ocean and arrived off Spain's coast circa 2015, most likely 'through the ballast waters of merchant ships,' marine biologist Candela Sánchez Atienzar told the AFP news agency. 'When it arrived it started to spread out of control, there's no invasion in the history of science described on this scale,' Sánchez recalled. Climate change has seen algae proliferate off Spain's coast in recent years, and there are no signs of slowing down as the Mediterranean Sea's surface temperature soars to record highs each summer. Spain is frequently referred to as 'ground zero' of the climate crisis in Europe, with hotter summer heatwaves and devastating storms. Removing the algae is an expensive process that now costs the southern Spanish coastal town of Estepona alone more than $1 million per year, reported El País newspaper. Tarifa itself, meanwhile, is seeking to turn the algae into electricity and sustainable fertilizer using an experimental bioreactor.
