Antony spent last season on loan at Real Betis, scoring nine goals and providing five assists in 26 appearances while helping the club reach the UEFA Europa Conference League final. Real Betis have reached an agreement with Manchester United to sign the Brazilian permanently for around €28 million, with United securing a 50% sell-on clause. The completion of the transfer depends on a severance arrangement to reduce Antony’s large Manchester United wages, which Betis cannot fully afford. Manchester United want to remove him from their wage bill, and Antony seeks regular football and a place in Brazil’s World Cup plans.
He was on loan at La Liga outfit Real Betis last season. He was outstanding for them, and he helped them reach the final of the UEFA Europa Conference League. The Spanish outfit are hoping to sign him permanently, and they have now secured an agreement with Manchester United. Antony scored 9 goals and picked up 5 assists in 26 matches for Betis last season.
According to a report from The Athletic, they will pay a fee of around 28 million to sign the Brazilian permanently. Manchester United managed to include a 50% sell-on clause in his contract. However, a deal is far from complete. The player is now negotiating a severance package with Manchester United. It remains to be seen whether the situation with his wages can be sorted out.
