Isco: Real Betis sign former Sevilla and Real Madrid midfielder on one-year deal

Isco scored 12 goals for Spain in 38 appearances

Real Betis have signed former Sevilla and Real Madrid midfielder Isco on a one-year contract.

He has been a free agent since December when Sevilla terminated his contract four months after joining.

The 31-year-old has 38 Spain caps, the last coming in 2019, and scored one goal in 19 games for the La Liga club.

More than 10,000 fans attended Isco's presentation as a Sevilla player in August, before coach Julen Lopetegui was sacked in October.

His move to Sevilla followed nine successful years at Real Madrid, where he won the Champions League five times and three La Liga titles.

Isco scored 53 goals in 353 games for Real Madrid, but made just 17 appearances during his final season at the Bernabeu.
