“I feel very happy,” Antony said in an interview with DAZN on April 2. “I found myself again, which is very important. Every day that passes, I realize this is the best decision I have ever made.”

Antony also added that living in Seville reminds him of his home country Brazil with its sunshine, similar cuisine and warmth of the people.

Since joining Betis at the end of January, Antony has scored four goals and provided four assists in 12 games in all competitions. Betis are competing in two competitions, including the UEFA Conference League and the race for a Champions League place for next season.

Before Antony joined, Betis were 10th in La Liga. Now, Manuel Pellegrini's team has climbed to 6th, just 6 points off the top 4. The team has just gone through a series of 6 consecutive wins, including a 2-1 victory in the derby against Sevilla.

Betis do not have the option to buy Antony as part of their loan deal with United. But Antony admitted that if given the chance, he would be happy to stay and contribute to the La Liga club. The Brazilian striker shared: "I am grateful to United for everything. I went through difficult moments there, but also have good memories."

In addition to his expertise, Antony also makes a difference in his fighting spirit every time he steps on the pitch. Isco joked: “We need to raise funds so that Antony can stay for at least another year. Since he arrived, we have felt a clear change. Antony brings a lot to us. I am very happy to have Antony here."

MU expect to earn 40 million pounds if Antony leaves this summer. The Brazilian striker is not in coach Ruben Amorim's plans.

Antony shines on the day Man Utd is defeated. Early morning on February 17, Antony scored a beautiful goal in Betis' 3-0 win over Sociedad, in round 24 of La Liga.
