Pellegrini rejects Everton, Fenerbahce for Real Betis stay

Manuel Pellegrini has committed to Real Betis for the new season.

The former West Ham and Manchester City manager has rejected a return to England after fielding an approach from Everton. Pellegrini has also resisted an offer from Fenerbahce.

Instead, reports AS, Pellegrini is happy to remain with Betis for the new campaign.

The Chilean guided Betis to a sixth-place finish last season and has been assured by the board that the squad will be improved this summer.

Pellegrini is in daily contact with sporting director Antonio Cordon and now feels comfortable the club can match his ambitions.
