Leeds United midfielder Marc Roca ‘does not hide his desire’ to stay at Real Betis in the summer, with his recent house purchase in Seville seen as a ‘very significant step’ towards that happening.

Estadio Deportivo cover the player today and the report yesterday that Roca had taken the decision to buy a house in Seville.

He’s currently living in the region as he’s on loan at Real Betis from Leeds, but a report yesterday made it clear he had bought a permanent residence with his family.

That was seen as a clear sign that he wants to remain where he is in the summer, with that yet to be decided and currently up in the air.

Betis have an option to make the move permanent but could also sign him on loan again if Leeds are not promoted, using the same clause in his contract that they did in the summer.

It’s currently up in the air but Estadio say Roca ‘does not hide his desire’ to remain at Betis, with the decision to buy a house in Seville a ‘very significant step’ on that path.

There is ‘no doubt’ that he wants the move to happen in some capacity and so it is now up to Betis, and even Leeds, to work things out so that he gets what he wants.
