Real Betis Squad Gathers at La Cartuja for Official 2025-26 Team Photo
As the 2025-26 season reaches its final, decisive stretch, the Real Betis squad took a brief pause from their tactical preparations to mark the campaign’s conclusion. On Friday, May 22, 2026, the entire first-team roster, led by manager Manuel Pellegrini, gathered at the Estadio de la Cartuja in Seville for the official team photo of the 2025-26 season.
The choice of venue was far from coincidental. While the club typically conducts its final preparations at the Luis del Sol Training Centre, the decision to move the session to the Estadio de la Cartuja served a dual purpose: it allowed the squad to finalize their visual documentation for the year while familiarizing themselves with the pitch that will host their upcoming clash against Levante UD.
Final Preparations Ahead of Levante Clash
The atmosphere at La Cartuja was professional, characterized by the focus expected from a side heading into a high-stakes fixture. Joining the players and the technical staff were club executives, headed by president Ángel Haro, underscoring the importance of unity as the club closes out its domestic commitments.
The match against Levante UD, managed by Luís Castro, is scheduled for tomorrow, Saturday, May 23, 2026, with kickoff set for 21:00 local time (19:00 UTC). For Real Betis, the encounter represents more than just a season finale; We see an opportunity to finish the campaign on a high note in front of their supporters in a neutral-ground setting that has historically played a significant role in Andalusian football.
Injury Updates and Squad Availability
While the team photo offered a moment of camaraderie, the session also provided an update on the squad’s physical status. Midfielders Sergi Altimira and Sofyan Amrabat were present at the stadium to participate in the commemorative photograph, though both players were notably absent from the full-intensity training session.
Both individuals are currently managing fitness concerns. Their presence at the stadium indicates that while they are being monitored closely by the medical staff, their inclusion in the official portrait remains a priority for the club. Their availability for tomorrow night’s match against Levante remains unconfirmed, with further updates expected from the club’s medical team closer to the kickoff.
