Mario Pasalic to be loaned out by Chelsea once more as midfielder edges closer to Real Betis move

Real Betis are confident of tying up a loan deal for Chelsea midfielder Mario Pasalic.

The 22-year-old has been at Stamford Bridge since 2014 after moving there from Hadjuk Split for £3m.

Since joining Chelsea, the Croatia international has continually been loaned out and he is on the move once again.

According to Estadio Deportivo, Pasalic will join Real Betis on loan for the season in the coming days.

The midfielder is said to have verbally agreed to join up with the Spanish club and a deal is close to being rubber stamped.

Pasilic has previously been on loan at Elche, Monaco and AC Milan during his time with Chelsea.
