Real Betis have sold Brazilian midfielder Petros to Sao Paulo for a fee reported to be in the region of €2.5m, it has been confirmed.
In February, the 28-year-old extended his deal at Estadio Benito Villamarin until 2020 but Los Verdiblancos have sanctioned his sale back to his home country.
Betis signed the holding midfielder for €1.5m from Corinthians in 2015 and he made 66 La Liga appearances for the club.
Sao Paulo reportedly have only bought 50% of the player’s rights with the further 50% expected to be bought within the next year.
