Remains productive for Ireland
Parrott converted a penalty kick in Sunday's UEFA Nations League draw against Israel.
Analysis: Parrott continued a three-game scoring run at the international level, adding to his momentum away from Betis. He was the undisputed star for his national team over the break with four goals in as many appearances, which included an impressive dribbling play for his brace against Austria. His finishing form remains a positive sign heading back to club play, where he could regain a starting spot over Cucho Hernandez unless fatigue is an issue in upcoming weeks.
Scores twice against Austria
Parrott scored twice but Ireland settled for a 2-2 draw with Austria as a two goal lead slipped away in the Nations League, according to Sky Sports.
Analysis: Parrott opened the scoring with a sensational solo effort in the 12th minute before adding a penalty just before halftime, only for Austria to come back through Alexander Prass and Michael Gregoritsch in the second half. He has made two starts and two substitute appearances for Real Betis in LaLiga this season, contributing one goal and one assist, including another goal on his Champions League debut against Lille, and continues to build his case for a bigger role at the club.
Bags assist
Parrott assisted once to go with one shot (one on goal) and two chances created in Thursday's 1-0 victory over Getafe.
Analysis: Parrott was active in the win for Betis as he continues to make a name for himself with his new club, finding Ez Abde in the 45th minute for the lone goal of the match. This is his third straight appearance with a goal contribution, as he scored against Lille in UCL play and against Real Madrid in league play. That said, he is up to two goal contributions in league play this season in four appearances (two starts).
Completes comeback with winner
Parrott scored one goal to go with four shots (one on goal) and one chance created in Tuesday's 3-2 win over Lille.
Analysis: Parrott was Betis' most active shooter with four attempts, missing a promising opportunity before halftime before making the difference in the 53rd minute with a low finish across Berke Ozer to complete the comeback. The forward played the entire match in just his second start across all competitions this season, and he has now scored twice across his last two starts. His finishing and ability to attack space should give him a strong case for additional opportunities at center-forward.
Scores game winner
Parrott scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) in Friday's 1-0 win over Real Madrid.
Analysis: Parrott came off the bench to score the game‑winner Friday against Real Madrid. He's opened the season primarily as a substitute, making two of his three appearances from the bench and contributing two key passes and one shot on target so far.
Could make debut Tuesday
Parrott could make his Betis debut in Tuesday's clash against Valencia after taking part in several team training sessions, according to Deportes Sevilla.
Analysis: Parrott has trained normally with his new teammates and is expected to be available for Tuesday's trip to Valencia. The striker arrives after an excellent 2025/26 campaign with AZ, where he recorded 31 goals and 12 assists across all competitions. Cucho Hernandez remains the primary option up front, but Parrott's scoring ability should allow him to compete for the starting role as he settles into his new surroundings.
Transfers to Real Betis
Parrott completed a permanent transfer from AZ Alkmaar to Real Betis on Thursday on a five-year contract.
Analysis: Betis needed a striker to add depth behind Cucho Hernandez, and Parrott will not only fill that role but actually push Hernandez for the starting role. The Irish striker joins the Verdiblancos after a productive 2025/26 season with AZ, in which he scored 31 goals and provided 12 assists, helping the team win both the Dutch Cup and Super Cup.
