Leeds stand firm on £8.5m-plus fee for Joseph as Betis look elsewhere
Yorkshire Evening Post
|June 24, 2025
Real Betis are reportedly considering other striker targets after so far being unable to meet Leeds United's demands for Mateo Joseph.
Betis have been heavily linked with interest in Joseph once again this summer, having seen a £10million bid rejected in January.
The 21-year-old did not start a single league game from the point of that offer until May, with team-mate Joel Piroe enjoying a rich vein of goalscoring form on his way to the 2024/25 Championship Golden Boot.
Joseph has since openly admitted a desire to play more - something virtually everyone in his position would echo - and a fresh report from Spain has provided an update on links to Betis.
Local newspaper Diario de Sevilla claim there remains a sizable gap between what the La Liga club can afford and what Elland Road chiefs demand.
