Antony was introduced with “Better” when she left Manchester United, but he decided to prioritize his luck.
It turned out to be a good decision when the Brazilian found his feet on the Spanish side of real Betis.

Antony had desperately fought for Constance in the summer of 2022 since his top -class £ 81 million from Ajax moved to Old Trafford, with several ready to call him a flop.
A change of loan to Betis until the end of the 2024/25 campaign, the fire has once again laid out within the 25-year-old.
He registered seven goals and four templates in 20 appearances in all competitions for the outfit based in Seville, whereby his latest strike was a dazzling effort with left-wing foot, which secured Betis an important 2-1 win against Espanyol in Laliga.
If Antony had entered the January window, which wanted a different kind of environment, his revival might never have occurred when he opened Mundo Deportivo about why he chose Betis.
“I always say that the best decision I’ve ever made to Betis,” said Antony.
“I am happy and when I’m happy, things are going well.
“It is of course important for me to score goals and offer templates, but it is even more important to be happy.
“I found myself here, I am very happy here and things are going very well.
“The future? It is very early; I don’t know what will happen, but I am very happy here. I enjoyed football.
“It’s crazy at the moment, although I know how talented I am, so I have a priority where I knew I would be happy even though I had better offers.”

Antony will return to Manchester when his loan magic ends, but in view of the effort to force his way in Ruben Amorim’s line -up, he appears as a star that is probably sold in summer to collect donations.
United has made the Brazilian a price of £ 40 million, a number that Betis may not afford.
However, the qualification for the Champions League of the next season could change the financial image of Betis and enable them to pursue a permanent step for Antony and not for another loan contract.
Betis boss Manuel Pellegrini admitted so much in April when he has had Anony’s outstanding effects since his part of the affiliated.
“We all saw what Antony did with the team here, and I hope he can stay, even though we know that it will not be easy,” said Pellegrini.
“He is very well equipped with the team’s collective game and had important individual services.

“I think the most important thing for Antony and everyone else is to concentrate on winning the next three points and achieve a bigger goal, which of course the financial situation of the association, playing in the Champions League or achieving a higher level in European competitions.”
Betis occupies sixth place on 57 points with four remaining games, one place and point behind Villarreal, which takes the last place in the Champions League in Laliga.
Pellegrini’s team will try to keep up with their rivals of the Champions League when they host the ninth Osasuna on Sunday.
