Betis Faces 3-Year Stadium Exile
11 Dec
Summary
- Real Betis will play at Estadio de La Cartuja for three years.
- Renovation of Benito Villamarín will take at least two and a half years.
- Betis needs player sales to fund winter transfer window moves.
Real Betis is set to extend its stay at the Estadio de La Cartuja, with club president Ángel Haro confirming an 'exile' of approximately three years. This duration is deemed unavoidable as the Benito Villamarín undergoes ambitious renovation works, aligning with initial board forecasts of two and a half to three years.
The club is actively progressing with the tender process for the renovation, aiming to award the contract in February or March after inviting four construction companies. This structured approach ensures a transparent and robust selection of the company tasked with executing the project.
Looking towards the winter market, Haro tempered expectations for major signings, emphasizing squad balance and the necessity of player departures for any arrivals. He explicitly stated the club's delicate financial situation, requiring capital gains before year-end and limiting their capacity to invest significantly in new players.
