Marc Roca spent just a single season with Leeds United before becoming one of a number of first-team stars to leave on loan following relegation
Marc Roca was so 'desperate' to secure a move away from Leeds United that he called Real Betis 'every day' before eventually sealing a loan switch to the La Liga side. That is according to the club's sporting director Ramon Planes, who stressed manager Manuel Pellegrini was 'immediately' convinced about the prospect of signing the former Bayern Munich star.
Roca's move to Betis, who finished sixth in La Liga last term, was a long time in the making and the delay seemed to frustrate the 26-year-old. Planes has revealed the former Spain youth international was in regular contact as he looked to broker an exit from United.
