Antony admits his future at Real Betis is unclear, even though his loan move from Manchester United was the 'right choice' for him.
While Antony describes joining Real Betis as his ‘best decision,’ the winger isn’t certain he’ll remain there next season.
WHAT HAPPENED?
The Brazilian winger has hit the ground running since his winter loan move from Old Trafford, contributing 4 goals and 4 assists in just 12 appearances for Betis. His impressive form has drawn playful calls from Isco for fan-funded permanent signing, along with glowing post-match compliments from Pellegrini following their crucial derby win over Sevilla.
THE BIGGER PICTURE
After his high-profile 2022 move from Ajax, Antony struggled to meet expectations at Manchester United, managing only 8 Premier League appearances this season before his loan departure. The Brazilian admits he’s ‘rediscovered his form’ in Spain but remains non-committal about a permanent stay with Betis.
WHAT ANTONY SAID
“I’m very happy here, but it’s still too early to decide,” Antony told reporters.
“I found myself, I needed to find myself, I needed to be happy, I needed my family to be happy too,” he added to DAZN. Every day that goes by, I see that it’s the best decision I’ve made. I am enjoying the city, the club, every day. [Seville] reminds me a lot of things from Brazil — the sun, the food, everything. The people are also very warm. I’m very happy and that’s important for us as Brazilians.”
WHAT NEXT FOR ANTONY?
Antony can further boost his reputation by helping his team to a result against Barcelona on Saturday.
