Troy Parrott Completes Move to Real Betis on 5-Year Deal

The reported €20 million fee makes the 24-year-old Betis’s fifth-most expensive signing, with Champions League football awaiting him.

  • On Thursday, August 20, 2026, Troy Parrott completed a €20 million move to Real Betis from Alkmaar, signing a five-year deal with the Spanish side.
  • Parrott spent three years in the Dutch leagues, including two at Alkmaar, where he scored over 30 goals last season to help the side win the Dutch Cup.
  • The transfer fee is reportedly €20 million, consisting of €16 million upfront and €4 million in add-ons, following a collapsed move to West Ham United earlier this window.
  • Champions League football swayed Parrott's decision, as Seville qualified after finishing fifth last season under manager Manuel Pellegrini—their first appearance in Europe's top competition in 20 years.
  • At 24, Parrott aims to peak at 27 or 28, viewing La Liga as a significant step up from the Eredivisie while joining creative talents like Isco and Abde Ezzalzouli.
