Isco wants to raise money to buy Antony

Antony continues to win with Real Betis.

Although he did not directly score or assist, the Brazilian striker still delighted Real Betis fans with his efforts and fighting spirit in the match. After the derby victory against Sevilla, Antony also had a passionate celebration with Betis fans.

Witnessing this, Isco - Betis' hero in the last match - said half-jokingly, half-seriously: "We need to raise money from the community to buy Antony outright this summer. He is really an important part of the team."

Isco's statement comes as Real Betis are negotiating with MU to keep Antony for at least another season. Initially, Betis proposed to loan the Brazilian star for 18 months, but financial difficulties forced them to only reach a short-term agreement of 6 months.

Both clubs are happy with the deal, with formal talks expected to take place in the coming weeks. One of the possibilities being considered is for Betis to extend Antony's loan with an obligation to buy.

However, in that case, MU will ask the Brazilian striker to extend his contract first to avoid him returning to Old Trafford with only 12 months left on his contract. Antony's current contract with MU lasts until 2027.

However, with Antony's excellent performance, Betis is willing to do everything to own the Brazilian striker this summer. This is also the solution that MU prioritizes, instead of continuing to loan the player.

The problem remains Betis' financial situation, which is in serious trouble. The 2-1 win over Sevilla in the Andalusian derby was significant for Betis, as it was the first time in seven years that they had beaten their arch-rivals. Antony's presence in attack has brought a new positive wind to Betis.
