Recruited for nearly 100 million euros, Antony did not satisfy the decision-makers at Manchester United. The Brazilian winger will be loaned to Spain.

We cannot say that Manchester United have benefited from a return on investment with Antony. Three figures could sum up the failure of recruiting the 24-year-old Brazilian striker.

Antony was bought for 95 million euros from Ajax Amsterdam in the summer of 2022, played 96 matches for the Red Devils in all competitions, and scored only 12 goals. Faced with this record, and with new coach Ruben Amorim not counting on him, it was time to look elsewhere.

On Saturday, Antony was in Spain to undergo the medical examination prior to a transfer to Betis Sevilla, the current ninth in the La Liga standings, reports The Daily Express.
