Aston Villa is interested in signing Betis's 24-year-old Moroccan winger Abdessamad Ezzalzouli this summer. Newcastle and his former club FC Barcelona are also interested in the player. It is reported that Barcelona has made inquiries about his situation and could have an advantage as they hold 20% of his rights and a resale percentage from his 2023 transfer. Betis, who signed Ezzalzouli for 7 million euros, could make a significant profit on the player. He is under contract until 2029 and has a 60 million euro release clause. A potential move could be influenced by Betis's qualification for the Champions League, which might influence the player to stay. Ezzalzouli has 35 caps and 2 goals for Morocco. His current market value, according to Transfermarkt, is €30.00m. Reports from April 2026 about the asking price have varied; some suggested a price of approximately €25 million, and others suggested a range of €40-50 million.
