"Antony moved to Real Betis, where he has enjoyed a productive season, scoring nine goals and registering eight assists so far. But, was there actually anything to it? Well, Christoph Freund admits there was. Speaking to Florian Plettenberg of Sky Germany (via @iMiaSanMia), the FC Bayern sporting director revealed that Antony was among those considered by the club in the dying hours of the window."
"A lot happened. We looked into several players, Antony was among them. There was a conversation, but that's now in the past. We're very happy with how the squad is currently set up. In the end, we came out of it well and we're satisfied. In the end, Bayern went with Nicholas Jackson on loan from Chelsea FC, a very different kind of player, which suited their needs."
Bayern Munich's transfer window featured early business and deadline-day drama as the club explored former Manchester United winger Antony. Nothing materialized and Antony moved to Real Betis, where he has nine goals and eight assists this season. Sporting director Christoph Freund confirmed Antony was among players considered in the window's final hours and described the period as unsettled. Bayern ultimately brought in Nicholas Jackson on loan from Chelsea, a different profile who fit the club's needs. The club reports satisfaction with the current squad and regards the outcome as positive for all parties.
