Irish international Troy Parrott is on a shortlist of players being looked at by La Liga club Real Betis.

Championship side West Ham United had a bid for Parrott rejected by AZ Alkmaar recently. The bid was said to be worth €18 million, with AZ valuing the Dubliner at €30 million.

Since joining in 2024, Parrott has scored 30 goals for the Dutch club. He was part of the side that won the Johan Cryuff Shield and KNVB Cup in 2026.

His departure has been expected for some time and he has been linked to a host of clubs including AC Milan, Ajax and Everton.

According to reports from Spain, he is seen as a "real option" for Betis.

A move to Betis would see Parrott playing Champions League football, as Betis secured qualification following a fifth place finish in La Liga last season.

His teammates would include Champions League winner Isco and former Manchester United winger Antony.
