The coach had the player at Las Palmas and he likes him
FC Barcelona are still studying the idea of signing a forward to replace injured winger Ousmane Dembele - and Uruguayan striker Luis Suarez.
Getafe's Angel Rodriguez has been linked heavily but Quique Setien also likes Real Sociedad striker Willian Jose. The forward nearly joined Spurs in the window and Quique had him at Las Palmas.
Setien told the club's sporting department about Willian Jose's qualities. The coach tried to bring him to Betis but could not reach a deal.
