Betis, who were promoted last year, are in 14th place in La Liga as they head into this weekend’s final game of the 2015/16 campaign at home to Getafe.
Poyet spent this season in charge of AEK Athens, guiding the club to a third place finish in the Greek Superleague, 31 points behind winners Olympiakos.
The former Chelsea and Tottenham midfielder began his managerial career at Brighton, before moving on to Sunderland, where he was sacked after just under two seasons at the helm in March 2013.
