In a move that has thrilled fans of both club and player, Junior Firpo has officially returned to Real Betis, signing a three-year contract with the La Liga side.

The deal was confirmed today, June 12, 2025, by transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, who described it with his signature phrase, “Here we go!” Firpo’s return marks a homecoming to the club where he began his professional career and first made a name for himself.

The 28-year-old fullback joins from Leeds United, where he spent the past few seasons showcasing his attacking flair and defensive work rate in the Premier League. His return to Betis is viewed as a strategic reinforcement for the Andalusian club, especially as they look to solidify their backline and inject experience into the squad ahead of the 2025/26 La Liga campaign.

Firpo first rose through the ranks at Real Betis before earning a high-profile move to FC Barcelona in 2019. After limited opportunities at Camp Nou, he made the switch to England, where he played an important role for Leeds United, despite the club’s mixed fortunes.

The move, initially reported by Spanish journalist Gonzalo Tortosa, has been met with excitement among Betis supporters, many of whom view Firpo’s return as a blend of nostalgia and footballing promise. Betis fans will remember his pace, versatility, and ability to contribute in both defense and attack.

With Firpo now officially a Betis player once more, all eyes will be on how he reintegrates into the squad and contributes under manager Manuel Pellegrini. The Andalusian side continues to build ambitiously, and Firpo’s return signals clear intent.

Stay tuned for more updates as Real Betis prepares for a pivotal season with a familiar face back in green and white.
