Real Betis are believed to be involved in a negotiation process with a number of potential future coaches with Chilean Manuel Pellegrini the strong favourite to take over at the Benito Villamarin. The former Real Madrid and Manchester City manager will be accompanied by his right hand man Mario Husillos.

Pellegrini was sacked as West Ham United manager last December with the Chilean moving to the East London Premier League side after a spell with Chinese Super League side Hebei Fortune.
