The Brazilian seems to be reborn while he was loaned to Real Betis after joining the Liga team from Man Utd in January. Antony has scored three goals and provided three assists in eight outings for the Seville club so far.
His release from Old Trafford seemed inevitable for some time after having entered the history of the Premier League as one of the biggest flops of all time. Antony cost 95 million euros in 2022, but has never been up to its inflated price.
It is unlikely that the 24 -year -old has a future at Man Utd, especially after the recent War of the Words of his camp with Ruben Amorim. The Red Devils manager said that Antony had had difficulties in England due to a lack of physics, which caused a furious response from his agent.
The price requested by Man Utd for Antony
According to the CEO of Real Betis, Ramon Alarcon, Antony wants to stay in Seville beyond this season. “The other day, Antony told me that he wanted to stay another year,” said Alarcon earlier this week. “The player is very comfortable here and was surprised by the facilities we have given him to settle in the city as soon as he arrives“.
However, Man UTD is determined to definitively get rid of the Brazilian in the coming window and this creates a huge problem for Betis. Man UTD must save money and the Manchester World underlines that the Red Devils will have to demand at least 38 million euros for Antony to avoid a loss with regard to the rules of profit and sustainability of the Premier League. This seems to be an too high price to pay for Betis and the report recognizes that other clubs would also have concerns about this price at this stage.
However, if Antony continues his ascending trajectory for the rest of the season, it should not be too difficult to find her contenders this summer.
