Antony joins Real Betis on loan until end of season

Antony, a winger for Manchester United, has signed for La Liga side Real Betis until the end of the season on loan.

The 24-year-old Brazilian signed for United from Ajax in August 2022 for £81.3m – the second most expensive player in the club’s history behind Paul Pogba.

In his 96 United appearances, he has scored 12 goals, but he hasn’t scored in the Premier League since April 2023.

United sources say the deal is covering a minimum of 84% of Antony’s salary, which is over £100, 000 per week.

Up until 2027, he is still on a contract at Old Trafford.

The Old Trafford club stated that “everyone at United would like to wish Antony the best of luck during his time in Seville.”

In his first three league games, Antony scored three goals in his first three appearances under former United manager Erik ten Hag, who was also his previous boss at Ajax.
