Álvaro Valles Transfer from Las Palmas to Real Betis
Las Palmas and Álvaro Valles' transfer saga may end soon. Las Palmas rejected Betis' offer, while Valles hoped they would accept it. Las Palmas' president warned Valles would not play if he didn't renew, a threat seen in the first four matches. The sporting director admitted not selling Valles hurt all parties. Betis' sporting director confirmed the transfer fell through and wished them well. Las Palmas is now considering terminating Valles' contract for a winter move.
Álvaro Valles was keen to join Betis this season, a club where he was initially trained. However, Betis did not increase their offer, and Las Palmas remained inflexible. Valles is now in a difficult situation, not playing matches and working behind the scenes. His current contract ends in 2025, and he has stated he is not thinking about the future.
Álvaro Valles was in discussions for a transfer to Betis. Betis seemed to settle on a 4 million offer, but Las Palmas did not agree and reinforced their goalkeeping position with Cillessen and Horkaš. Valles remains at Las Palmas at least until the winter market. Luis Carrión has been ordered not to call him for any matches.
Real Betis is interested in signing Álvaro Valles from Las Palmas, conditional on the departure of Rui Silva.
Alvaro Valles prefers to return to Betis due to high salary demands.
The transfer of Valles to Betis was initially expected to be straightforward but has become complicated due to Las Palmas' high demands. Valles has one year left on his contract and has already reached an agreement with Betis. He wants to play for Betis next season and participate in European competitions, to the extent that he halted his potential transfer to Olympique de Marseille. Las Palmas aims to maximize their earnings from this transfer.
Valles is on the agenda of Betis. For Betis to acquire Valles, they need to release Rui Silva.
Real Betis has submitted an initial offer of around 4 million euros to Las Palmas for the goalkeeper Álvaro Valles.
Betis is interested in reinforcing their goal with Álvaro Valles, who is currently with Las Palmas. However, Las Palmas' asking price for the transfer exceeds what Betis can afford. Valles is interested in returning to his hometown of Sevilla and is willing to wait for Betis as long as possible. He has one year left on his contract. Betis has even considered the scenario of waiting until the end of the season and signing him with a letter of freedom next year, something Las Palmas does not contemplate.
Real Betis also intends to incorporate Álvaro Valles, who has one year left on his contract with Las Palmas. However, the high demands of the Canary Island club may delay his arrival by one more year, until he is free in June 2025.
Álvaro Valles, who had a standout season at Las Palmas and has a past with Betis, is one of the names that has been in the picture for some time. His signing would involve a financial outlay that could only be justified with the departure of Rui Silva.
Real Betis has targeted Álvaro Valles for a transfer. The goalkeeper, who had a fantastic season, especially the first half, would be happy to return home as he grew up in the Betis academy. The 'return operation' will not be cheap for the Andalusian club. Valles still has a year left on his contract with Las Palmas - he automatically renewed this season - and his release clause is 30 million euros.
