Victor Camarasa has shone in the Premier League on loan at Cardiff City from La Liga outfit Real Betis.
Victor Camarasa has added some guile and class to a workmanlike Cardiff City side this season.
The 24-year-old Spaniard joined on loan from Real Betis in the summer transfer window and has made a real impact in South Wales, establishing himself as one of the first names on Neil Warnock’s team sheet.
Camarasa has started all but one of Cardiff’s 22 Premier League games, scoring three times including a wonderous last-gasp winner away at Leicester City in December.
So it is little surprise that the Bluebirds want to snap the midfielder up on a permanent basis.
According to Mundo Deportivo, Cardiff have offered Betis £13 million to sign Camarasa, although he would prefer to make a decision on his future at the end of the campaign.
It is expected that Camarasa would only be willing to stay should Cardiff avoid an immediate return to the Championship this season. And it remains to be seen whether Betis would let him go for less than his £23 million release clause.
The prospect of Camarasa returning to La Liga should not be ruled out either as he is exactly the kind of midfielder Betis coach Quique Setien likes.
