Who are the worst signings in the history of Betis? The Seville team is one of the classics of Spanish football but also one of the most peculiar and known League teams. With a rich history that has had all, especially in the last decade where it has hit changes as abrupt as playing in Champions and down several times, el Betis It is one of those teams where it's hard to go unnoticed for better or worse.
The worst signings in the history of Betis
Denilson
El caso del brasileño más que porque fuera malo que no lo era, because he had a huge talent, it was for the exaggerated amount that Lopera paid, uno de the most peculiar presidents of the League por él. Nothing less than 5300 million old pesetas, that the late 90, there were many millions (little more than 30 million today) , in which it was once the most expensive signing in history.
As if that were not enough, He put a clause 65.000 millions. Denilson had talent and let it trickle samples but excessive price made it a ruinous signing, possibly the worst operation in the history of Betis.
Andrei
Llegó a España para jugar en el Atlético de Madrid pero tras una temporada en el club colchonero que lo había fichado por 1000 millions, He was transferred to Betis 500 in a deal between the two clubs at that time they were headed by Jesus Gil y Lopera (almost nothing). Both clubs lost. Atletico because he sold it for half what it had cost him and Betis because they came a genuine pufo not paid in the verdiblanco box and ended almost gifted.
Kukleta
Fue one of the first signings of Lopera in the early 90 when he was not yet president of Betis. Béticos they paid 100 million pesetas for the front of the Czech Republic who at the time played for Spartak Moscow. With a peculiar way of understanding life, He did not like training, I was a fan of the night and the food in Seville and smoked packs of snuff 3 en 3. Murió en 2011 a los 46 year old.
Odonkor
Este futbolista destacó en el Mundial de 2006 from Germany for many reasons. One was that the German player, I was able to run the 100 meter sprinter in the purest style. A rapídismo footballer in the Betis was fixed and paid for it 4,5 millions of euros. A series of injuries prevented the footballer from not only being able to succeed at Betis but also on any team.. He retired to 29 años and always she left feeling that could reach more.
Puma Rodriguez
José Luis Rodríguez “The Puma” He played for Betis. And we do not mean that singer leafy tupe the tapes broke into the gas station 80 but the rotund Argentine forward who played Betis. Behind a failure, with obvious overweight coming to pass 90 kilos and as striking as things get a colic spend eating suckling pig. A phenomenon which can read more aquí.
Fantaguzzi
Jugador argentino de nombre peculiar, Betis him signed in 1987 from Western Railway. Sevilla passing through was quite dispensable because in his only season in the set Betis played only in the partidillos training and as is logical, he left there a few months after his arrival completing a nefarious operation.
Rafael Jacques
He Betis de Lopera también fichó a este brasileño en 1998 I was playing in the Japanese football. I would not know where technicians of the time but the truth is that scratched pocket to bring this case in the Betis striker who did not give much to talk. Jugó 5 parties pero marcó eso si, No hesitation Villarreal. Uno de los peores fichajes de la historia del Betis.
Gudjonsson
A principios del siglo XXI el Betis decidió sacar la chequera para firmar por unos 800 million of the time this Icelandic player who left nothing remarkable with verdiblanca shirt. A signing of those to forget.
Pavone
Mariano Pavone llegó al Betis en 2007 con una alta expectativa, respaldada por su éxito goleador en Estudiantes de la Plata, donde fue clave para ganar el campeonato en Argentina. Sin embargo, su rendimiento en España no estuvo a la altura de lo esperado. A pesar de la inversión de alrededor de siete millones de euros, Pavone solo anotó 16 goles en tres temporadas, y el Betis descendió a Segunda División poco después de su llegada. Este fichaje resultó ser un fracaso notable y costoso para el club.
Rojo
Era una de las joyas de la cantera del Barcelona, una estrella juvenil a principios de los años 80. Destacado en el World U-20 1979 de Japón y ganador de una Liga y una Copa con el Barça, Rojo también jugó en la final de la Copa de Europa en el Pizjuán. Sin embargo, una grave lesión frenó su carrera. Con la intención de retomar su camino al estrellato, Rojo fichó por el Betis, pero desafortunadamente volvió a lesionarse gravemente. Este traspaso, lleno de esperanzas, terminó en una gran decepción para el Betis ya que no llegó ni a debutar.
draft
Este portugués llegó al Betis en 2001 but his performances did not convince the technicians of the time and ended up playing more seasons and games in Poli Ejido that at the time, It was one of the top half teams Segunda, that in the Betis where its happened is best remembered for other things that are not football.
Dusko Tosic
En 2011 Betis signed this Serb side coming given by Red Star. But it did not end neither the season and came in the winter after adding 37 minutes in League and Cup match. A little productive signing for Betis.
