Foued Kadir Set to Remain at Real Betis If Promotion Secured
Algerian international Foued Kadir looks poised to extend his stay in Spain, with a permanent move to Real Betis on the cards—provided the club completes its return to La Liga.
Currently on loan from Olympique de Marseille, Kadir has become a key figure for the Andalusian side in their push for promotion. The 31-year-old midfielder has featured in 22 league matches this season, contributing both experience and stability as Betis sit atop the Segunda División.
With just six games left and a six-point cushion over third place, Betis are in a commanding position to clinch one of the two automatic promotion spots. And Kadir has made his intentions clear.
“There is no doubt. Everything is signed and there is no alternative: if we go up, I will stay,” Kadir told local media, confirming a clause in his loan deal that triggers a permanent transfer if Betis are promoted.
Kadir, who previously played for Rennes and Valenciennes before joining Marseille, appears eager to continue his Spanish adventure—this time in La Liga. His performances this season have earned him praise from fans and management alike, and his future now seems closely tied to Betis’ final sprint toward top-flight football.
With promotion nearly within reach, the stage is set for Kadir to remain in green and white—and return to the Spanish elite.
