The match at Benito Villamarín between Real Betis and Real Madrid saw a historic victory for the verdiblanco team. With a score of 2 to 1, the merengue team ended with a defeat that affected their fight for LaLiga. While players like Isco were among the most outstanding, there was one who secured his signing with Tottenham.

The player in question is Johnny Cardoso, the scorer of the first goal for Real Betis. Delivering an excellent match, where he dominated the midfield, the American secured his signing with the Premier League. Tottenham, through a purchase option following Giovani Lo Celso's departure, has secured Cardoso's services.

This has left Real Madrid without a player who, for a moment, was linked to a possible arrival at the club. Similarly, this signing demonstrates the impact of a match that will forever be etched in LaLiga's history.

The Secured Signing

At 23 years old, Johnny Cardoso has managed to stand out as a great midfielder. Shining for 4 seasons at Internacional de Porto Alegre, the player is performing well at Real Betis. Wearing verdiblanco since January 2024, the American has continued his remarkable progress.

This placed him on the radar of several clubs around Europe, showcasing his immense quality. Wolverhampton, Atlético de Madrid, AC Milan, Liverpool, and Real Madrid were the teams that showed interest in this signing.

The merengue team, in particular, saw in the American a solid option to strengthen their midfield in the near future. However, after his excellent performance against the white club, everything points to Cardoso ending up wearing Tottenham's jersey.

Another Talent to England

After securing this transfer, Spanish soccer will see another great talent head to the Premier League. With nothing left to do, it only remains to await Cardoso's arrival at a club that has been waiting for decades to end its drought.
