Brazilian winger Antony has found renewed success and happiness at Real Betis following his challenging stint at Manchester United.
Since joining the Andalusian club on loan during the winter transfer window, the 25-year-old has impressed with a string of standout performances in La Liga.
Antony, who struggled to deliver after his £85 million move from Ajax to United, has rediscovered his spark in Spain, contributing crucial goals and assists.
His derby triumph over Sevilla further cemented his status as a key player for Betis, leading to calls for the club to extend his loan.
Teammate Isco, who has also revived his career after leaving Real Madrid, praised Antony’s impact, humorously suggesting that Betis might “crowdfund” to retain his services. Antony returned the sentiment, calling Isco a “genius” and an incredible player to work with.
Reflecting on his time at Betis, Antony shared, “I feel happier and more content. I found myself here and I’m grateful for everyone’s support. My focus is on Betis, and I’m enjoying every day at the club.”
With his United contract lasting until 2027, the Red Devils face key decisions regarding Antony’s future. Betis is keen to extend the loan, but reports suggest interest from major European clubs, including Bayern Munich.
