Real Betis is in a delicate situation in goal. The departure of Rui Silva left a void that, so far, neither Fran Vieites nor Adrián San Miguel have been able to fill convincingly. Both goalkeepers have taken turns as starters, but their performances have not been convincing enough to secure the position, sparking an increasingly intense debate in Heliópolis.

Vieites was the first to take on the responsibility, stringing together several consecutive starts. However, the heavy defeat against Barcelona at Montjuic raised doubts about his ability to hold the fort in the Betis goal. Faced with this situation, Pellegrini chose to try Adrián, who also failed to provide the expected solidity. His mistakes in crucial matches against Alavés, Athletic Club, and Celta de Vigo ultimately led to Vieites regaining his place, with him recently being chosen against Gent in the Europa League.

Nobody earns Pellegrini's trust

As reported by 'Eldesmarque', despite this goalkeeper carousel, none have managed to earn the complete trust of the Chilean coach. Prior to the match against Real Sociedad, Pellegrini did not dispel doubts and made it clear that he will continue to assess who is the best option on a game-by-game basis.

With this scenario, Betis is already looking to the future. The arrival of Álvaro Vallés in July is seen as the great hope to end the uncertainty in goal. Until then, the debate will remain open.
