Antony Nearing Loan Move to Real Betis
According to multiple reports, Manchester United winger Antony is on the verge of joining Real Betis on loan for the remainder of the season. The Brazilian attacker is expected to arrive in Seville on a short-term deal without an option to buy.
Real Betis sporting director Manu Fajardo recently confirmed the club’s interest in Antony, describing him as a “very appealing player in this market.” Negotiations are said to be in the final stages, with only minor details left to resolve.
Antony has struggled for playing time at Manchester United this season, featuring for just 400 minutes across all competitions despite a change in manager. The 23-year-old is now seeking an opportunity to rediscover the form that led United to pay €100 million for his services just two seasons ago.
For Real Betis, the potential arrival of Antony comes at a crucial time as the club looks to turn around a disappointing campaign. Currently off the pace in the race for European qualification in La Liga, Betis will hope the Brazilian can provide a spark to their attacking play and help salvage their season objectives.
If the deal is completed, Antony would significantly strengthen Betis’ right-wing options as they aim for a strong second half of the season across multiple competitions. His creativity and flair could prove vital in addressing the team’s recent struggles and pushing for European qualification.
