Real Betis Balompié will announce in the coming hours the sale of Altimira to Sporting CP. The Catalan player, signed by Ramón Planes in August 2023 for 1.4 million euros, leaves a significant profit in the club's coffers.

What happened?

The Betis invested less than two million euros in the signing of Altimira, and now the player is leaving for 18.5 million euros plus variables. The operation is a success for the club's sports management.

Why is it important for Real Betis Balompié?

The sale of Altimira is an example of the club's good management in the transfer market. The Betis has shown itself to be capable of investing little and selling high, which benefits the club's economy.

What comes next?

The Sporting CP is one of the largest exporters of talent in European football, and Altimira still has room to grow. The Betis reserves 5% of a future profit for a possible transfer of the player.
