REPORT: Real Betis has sign a new Winger…

In 2022, Barcelona expressed interest in signing the 22-year-old winger from Real Betis.

In order to commence the second half of their 2023–24 La Liga campaign, Barcelona will travel to Seville tomorrow in preparation for their matchup with Real Betis at the Benito Villamarin.

With as many as 12 players for their opponent expected to be sidelined due to injury and international commitments, Barça will have some advantage going into the game.

While Marc Bartra, Ez Abde, and Chadi Riad are not playing, Barça will be facing off against some of their former players, including Hector Bellerin and Sergi Altimira.

The winger Luiz Henrique, who was previously under consideration by the club, will also be facing Barcelona.

Barcelona showed a desire to acquire Luiz Henrique.

In fact, Barcelona was interested in bringing Luiz Henrique back during the summer transfer window of 2022, according to Joaquim Piera of SPORT.

Due to his quickness, strength, and technical skill, the 22-year-old Brazilian winger attracted the attention of the Blaugrana while he was playing for Fluminense in his native country.

The young forward had already made over 100 appearances for Fluminense by that point, and Barça reportedly had very positive reports on him.

Ultimately, though, after pulling all the financial strings, the €58 million deal to bring Raphinha from Leeds United gave the Catalan giants the advantage of a more seasoned and established player in Europe.

But in the same summer, Henrique made his move to Europe when Real Betis acquired him for a mere €8 million. However, the 22-year-old’s time in Europe has not been successful as he has not been able to establish himself and find a position on Manuel Pellegrini’s team. Henrique is thus rumored to be returning to Brazil during the current window.
