The requirement to carry out a planning that allows the fight in three competitions is present in Heliópolis. It is in the figure of its coach, Manuel Pellegrini, and in a sports direction that nevertheless accounts for the minimum to try to respond to the demand of needs. The challenge in Europe, in Heliópolis, will try to be manufactured at zero cost for the moment, although possible sales may change this reality over the weeks. The club closed the continuity of Juan Miranda yesterday without the need to pay for a transfer to Barcelona, while the goalkeeper Rui Silva was already tied for several months. The intention, for now, is to continue taking steps in that direction to retouch the template.
It is not a new market modality in Betis, but it was already the only way last summer. Then it worked halfway, with a Claudio Bravo who did show performance while a trick like Martín Montoya barely had playing time. Yes, there were more successes in the recent past: tricks like Canales or Pau López landed without a transfer fee as they were free. And it is the path chosen for the moment to try to incorporate the center back to replace Aissa Mandi. Fede Fernández and Balbuena, both in contract with Newcastle and West Ham, were presented as Pellegrini's wishes for that defense, as this newspaper announced.

Cordón's task will multiply as the days go by. Pellegrini considers it essential that the template is almost completely designed on return to work, although in the sports direction they will try to trouble with some wishes that could come in the form of an assignment. The coach stressed the importance of manufacturing a squad suitable for fighting in Europe without affecting league life. And, for the moment, Betis intends to respond to their demands with free cards.
