La Liga
Real Betis is already starting to outline its planning for the upcoming summer transfer market, and one of the names clearly set to leave is Marc Roca. The Catalan midfielder has not managed to meet expectations, and his time at Heliópolis seems to be coming to an end.
At 29 years old, the player is going through a tough time in his career. His performance has been one of the most criticized in recent months.
Below-Expected Performance
Marc Roca joined Real Betis in 2024 for just over four million euros as a bet to strengthen the midfield with experience and judgment.
However, his performance has not lived up to expectations. Despite having had continuity under the guidance of Manuel Pellegrini, the player has failed to establish himself or provide consistency in his game.
His performances have been inconsistent, and his impact on the team has been limited, placing him under the spotlight of criticism.
Pellegrini Gave Him Opportunities
The Chilean coach has trusted him for much of the season, giving him playing time and responsibility in the midfield.
However, the player has not capitalized on those opportunities to consolidate himself as an important piece within the team's scheme.
Competition in the midfield and the need to raise the team's level have ended up putting him in a delicate position within the squad.

Summer Exit, Decision Made
The club is clear that it's best to go separate ways. Betis is already working on the idea of moving him on in the upcoming summer transfer market.
Although a major economic operation is not expected, the priority is to free up space in the squad and open the door to new signings that can elevate the team's level.
The decision has been well received by fans, who believe Marc Roca's cycle at the club has come to an end.
The summer will mark the end of his time at Benito Villamarín. Betis aims to take a step forward and, for that, needs to renew certain pieces. Marc Roca will be one of the clearest departures in the team's restructuring.
