Loan club launches desperate bid to keep hold of United star, they’ve offered a sweetener to secure a deal – report

Real Betis are reportedly pushing for another season-long loan of Manchester United star Antony and are offering to pay a larger share of his salary to strike an agreement.

Antony has enjoyed a dramatic change in fortunes since leaving United and joining Betis on loan during the January transfer window.

He hit the ground running straight away at Betis, scoring three times in his first four games across all competitions. He has made 11 total appearances for Betis, managing an impressive four goals and as many assists.

A previous report covered by The Peoples Person claimed that Betis are keen on making Antony’s stay a permanent one.

It has been suggested that United want around €50m to sanction the sale of the Brazilian, who has also been linked to Juventus, Bayern Munich and Real Sociedad.

Antony’s loan move to Betis does not include a permanent transfer option, meaning he is set to return to Old Trafford once the season ends. However, all parties are expected to seek a permanent separation.

A few weeks ago, Betis CEO Ramon Alarcon confirmed as much, indicating that the 25-year-old had privately expressed a desire to continue working under Manuel Pellegrini.

Now, ABC de Sevilla journalist Mateo González has given a huge update on Antony’s future.

According to González Betis want to extend Antony’s loan spell until the end of the 2025/26 campaign.

It’s understood that the Estadio Benito Villamarín outfit are “beginning to take the necessary steps to enter into negotiations” with United to get a deal over the line.

Betis are proposing to cover a bigger share of Antony’s salary in a bid to convince United to agree to their demands.

The club’s efforts would be massively aided by gaining entry into the Champions League. At the moment, Betis are in sixth place with 44 points – eight below Athletic Club in fourth.

Currently, the Spanish team pay around 84% of Antony’s wages but they didn’t pay United a loan fee.
