Appears back in training
Bartra (foot) appears to have returned to training with Real Betis, according to his personal social media accounts.
Analysis: Bartra missed the remainder of last season with a partial plantar fascia injury in his right foot, an issue that had been one of the more significant setbacks for Betis' backline given his consistent form before the injury struck. He closed out the campaign with 30 appearances, contributing a goal, 58 tackles and 194 clearances while keeping eight clean sheets. His reappearance in training is an encouraging sign that his recovery has progressed as the club begins preseason. Bartra is expected to be gradually reintegrated as Real Betis continue preseason preparations.
Will miss rest of season
Bartra (foot) has been confirmed with a partial plantar fascia injury in his right foot and will miss the remainder of the season, with his return to team training dependent on his progress during the recovery process, according to the club.
Analysis: Bartra ends the campaign having been one of Real Betis's most consistent defensive performers, contributing one goal, 58 tackles and 194 clearances across 30 appearances in all competitions while keeping eight clean sheets. The 35-year-old had been in excellent form before the injury struck, posting more than five clearances in each of his previous six appearances, making his absence a real blow for the final stretch. Diego Llorente is the most likely candidate to step into the starting role in central defense for the remaining fixtures of the season.
