Antony continued to have impressive performances for Real Betis, this time in a 3-1 win over Girona in round 32 of La Liga.
In the 38th minute of the match at the Municipal de Montilivi Stadium, Romain Perraud broke through strongly on the left wing, before crossing the ball for Antony to run up at the far post. The former MU player finished with his right foot before the ball had even touched the ground, leaving the home team's goalkeeper no time to react.
With the above goal, Antony has 5 goals and 4 assists after 17 appearances for Betis this season. For comparison, the Brazilian player needed 62 matches to score 5 goals for MU.
When the Old Trafford team spent 100 million euros to recruit Antony from Ajax Amsterdam in the summer of 2022, the expectations placed on the Brazilian striker were huge. However, the harsh reality happened when Antony could not find a place here. His fluctuating form and ineffectiveness in attacks made him the focus of criticism from fans.
The turning point came in the 2024 winter transfer window when Real Betis made an offer to loan Antony. This decision provided a valuable opportunity for the 24-year-old player to be reborn in a new environment, no longer under the pressure of the "blockbuster" label.
Insider sources say the Old Trafford team is closely monitoring Antony's performance and has not ruled out the possibility of bringing him back into the first team next season. However, if they receive an attractive offer, the "Red Devils" are also willing to sell him outright to recover part of their investment.
According to Transfermarkt, the Brazilian player is currently valued at just £20 million. This is a huge drop from when he was bought by Manchester United. With his current form, £20 million for Antony is considered too cheap.
