Real Betis is stepping up its efforts to bring Antony back to La Liga. The Spanish side has targeted the return of Manchester United wingers ahead of the 2025/26 season, and sources close to the situation have notified Catch off side.
Despite their overwhelming financial situation, Betis is determined to sign a deal and is exploring several options that will allow the move this summer.
The 25-year-old Brazilian winger, who joined Manchester United from Ajax, endured a turbulent spell at Old Trafford.
Antony is struggling with Man United
His future under manager Reuben Amorim looks uncertain due to inconsistent performances and limited contributions from his goals over the recent season.
As a result, United put Antony on the transfer list and set an initial asking price of 50 million euros. However, the Premier League giants may be willing to negotiate a reduced fee at 35 million euros, which is considered a potential compromise.
Betis is not alone in pursuit, as several European clubs have shown interest in Brazilian international. Nonetheless, Verdiblancos hopes to win the race by proposing a loan deal.
They are looking for a deal that includes either an obligation or option to buy, while requiring United to cover a portion of Antony’s wages.
It is Antony’s own stance that makes Betis’ approach particularly compelling. The winger is said to be embracing significant pay cuts to promote the movement and reunite with the Seville-based club.
His willingness to compromise economically could prove important in closing the gap between Betis’ constraints and United’s demands.
Winger was impressed during his loan spell in Spain
Antony scored nine goals and provided five assists in 26 appearances for the Spanish club.
Negotis is expected to be complicated, but Betis reportedly is fully focused on landing prioritization goals.
If successful, Antony’s return to Spain will not only provide him with a fresh platform to revive his career, but also provide Betis with a much-needed infusion of wing talent and pace.
The Brazilian helped the club reach the conference league finals during his loan spell, and his performance was very impressive.
Along with Antony, Alejandro Garnacho is also leaving the club, but Winger wants to stay in the Premier League.
