Real Betis planning to extend Fekir contract amid Arsenal, Leicester links

Real Betis president Angel Haro is hopeful of holding onto Nabil Fekir.

The French attacker is wanted by a number of clubs, most notably Arsenal and Everton.

Given his contract expires in June 2023, there was speculation Betis may be forced to sell him for a modest fee in the summer.

However, Haro sated that he hopes both Fekir and coach Manuel Pellegrini will be at the club for much longer.

"Before the end of the season I would like to have Pellegrini renewed," he said.

"There is dialogue with Fekir, he is happy and the circumstances are there."

In addition, TransferMarketWeb states that Fekir is not willing to join Arsenal or Everton in January, as he is settled in Spain.
