Real Betis are closing in on Troy Parrott after agreeing a €20 million deal with AZ Alkmaar, with the forward now travelling to Spain to complete the final stages of the move. The move would give Betis an in-form goalscorer ahead of a season that includes Champions League football, although the signing still awaits final confirmation.
- Parrott is travelling to Spain to sign for Real Betis after a €20m deal was agreed.
- The AZ Alkmaar forward scored 16 goals in 28 Eredivisie matches last season.
- The move is expected to take Parrott to La Liga, with final confirmation still to come.
Troy Parrott’s Current Transfer Situation
Troy Parrott remains an AZ Alkmaar player as the proposed transfer enters its final stages, although Real Betis are now at an advanced stage of negotiations. The deal is valued at €20m, with the package expected to comprise an initial €16m fee and around €4m in add-ons.
Parrott is expected to put pen to paper on a five-year contract once the move is completed. His trip to Spain indicates that the transfer is close, but Betis still have the formal signing, registration, and official announcement to finalise before the deal is officially confirmed.
A New La Liga Opportunity Awaits
Real Betis are moving for Parrott following a strong season in the Netherlands, where he scored 16 goals in 28 league appearances for AZ Alkmaar. That return gives the proposed move clear footballing logic.
Betis also offer Parrott a step up to La Liga at an ambitious moment for the club. Their fifth-place finish last season secured Champions League qualification for only the second time in their history, and that level of competition appears to be a major draw.
