On 5 October 2020, Miranda joined La Liga side Real Betis on loan for the 2020–21 campaign.[8]

Real Betis

On 1 June 2021, Barcelona announced that the clause in Miranda's contract to automatically extend it until 2023 would not triggered, and that and he would join Real Betis permanently once his loan spell ended. Barça will reserve 40% of the rights of any future sale, and a right to first refusal on re-signing Miranda.[9]

On 23 April 2022, Miranda scored the winning goal in the penalty shootout for Real Betis in the 2022 Copa del Rey Final.[10]
