Isco Begins Field Training with Real Betis in Significant Recovery Step

Real Betis has provided an update on the health status of their player Isco Alarcón. The club's official Arabic account on X (formerly Twitter) posted a photo of the player training on the field in full sports attire. This development is a strong indication of significant progress in the player's recovery from an injury sustained four months ago, reflecting his regaining of necessary physical sensations as he cautiously advances towards a return to competition.

Isco's injury, which has kept him off the pitch, dates back to the team's Europa League match against Utrecht, following an unintentional challenge from teammate Sofiane Amrabat, who has since returned to action. In this regard, Real Betis coach Manuel Pellegrini stated before the Getafe match at the Coliseum that the player's recovery process is progressing positively, noting that the technical staff does not expect him to be included in the squad before the upcoming international break.

Pellegrini emphasized the need for patience in setting a definitive date for the player's return to group participation. The coach said, “Isco's recovery is progressing very well, and he probably won't be available before the international break, but we will see when he can join group training.” The Chilean coach added that once any player integrates into group work, they typically need one to two weeks to regain full readiness, confirming that the club has not yet set an exact date for his full integration.

This news comes as the Andalusian team looks to organize its technical plans. Photos published on March 28, 2026, showed the player's seriousness in returning despite the absence of a specific timeline. While fans eagerly await his return to the pitch, the club continues to closely monitor the player's physical condition to avoid any potential setbacks before he enters the final stage of rehabilitation.
