According to Radio Sevilla, as quoted in Estadio Deportivo, Real Betis are keeping tabs on Borussia Dortmund's Ramy Bensebaini.

The La Liga outfit have reportedly identified the versatile defender as a potential replacement for left-back Junior Firpo.

Firpo, who ho has struggled to find his form with the Andalusian club, partly due to recurring injuries, could be up for sale next summer.

Bensebaini's international experience and ability to play various positions make him a prime replacement should Firpo leave.

The reporter even suggests that Betis sporting director Manu Fajardo has placed the Borussia Dortmund player at the top of his wish list.

The Spanish side already got a first-hand look at Bensebaini in their 2-1 defeat to BVB in the Champions League in early November.
