Real Betis coach Pellegrini: Fekir availability now important

Real Betis coach Manuel Pellegrini is happy having Nabil Fekir available.

With Isco out with a hamstring injury, Pellegrini admits Fekir's return is crucial.

Ahead of facing Cadiz, he said: "It is very important that Nabil played the 90 minutes.

"We incorporated him into the team playing a little more as a forward because he was not in a position to play all the time in his position, but he has been showing throughout the week that he is back.

"He will return to his job as a midfielder with all the quality he had before his injury and we will have a forward again."
