‎Antony Eyes Manchester United Exit as Real Betis Prepares Fresh £85m Bid‎

By: Shawn
‎Antony could soon discover the next chapter of his Manchester United career as Real Betis readies a fresh bid to secure the Brazilian permanently. Reports from Mail Sport indicate that the Spanish club may submit an offer within the next 24 hours, potentially ending a confusing summer for the £85m signing.

‎Real Betis are set to make a new £85m bid for Antony, as Manchester United prepare to decide the Brazilian's future in the next 24 hours.

‎
‎Earlier in the transfer window, a loan proposal from Betis was rejected, leaving Antony's future uncertain. United are focused on recouping funds from one of their record signings after significant spending on attacking reinforcements this summer.
‎
‎Following a successful loan spell with Betis last season, Antony has not been included in manager Ruben Amorim's plans at Old Trafford. The winger could face limited options if a transfer fails to materialize before the deadline.
‎
‎Real Betis manager Manuel Pellegrini commented on Antony's potential return, stating, "I've not spoken with Antony. We all know that he was very good here; we want him with us, and Antony wants to return, no doubt. But we also need the owner, which is Manchester United, to make a decision."
‎
‎Antony netted nine goals during his loan at Betis and aims to replicate that performance if he rejoins the La Liga side. While the Brazilian reportedly prefers a return to Spain, alternative moves may be necessary if the clubs cannot reach an agreement on a fee. Reintegration at Manchester United appears unlikely should a deal not be struck.
