Manchester United fans have been left stunned after Real Betis’ chief executive, Ramon Alarcon, dropped a bombshell regarding Antony’s future. The Brazilian winger, who joined the Spanish club on loan, seems to be enjoying life in Seville so much that he may not be in a hurry to return to Old Trafford.
Speaking about Antony’s situation, Alarcon revealed:
“The other day, Antony told me that he wanted to stay another year. The player is very comfortable here and was surprised by the facilities we gave him to settle in the city as soon as he arrived.”
This revelation has sparked a wave of reactions among Manchester United supporters. Many are questioning the state of affairs at their club, especially after hearing how quickly Antony adapted to life at Betis.
One fan humorously commented: “Is Carrington really that bad?”
Another referenced former United star Cristiano Ronaldo’s past criticisms of the club, saying: “Maybe Cristiano Ronaldo was right.”
The statement comes at a crucial time for Manchester United, who have struggled with consistency this season. Antony, a high-profile signing from Ajax, has yet to fully live up to expectations at Old Trafford, and his future remains uncertain.
While Real Betis fans might be excited by the prospect of keeping Antony, Manchester United supporters are left wondering what this means for their club’s long-term plans. Could Antony really extend his stay in La Liga? Or is this just a player enjoying a temporary escape from the pressures of the Premier League?
What do you think? Should Antony return to Manchester United, or would another year in Spain be the best move for his career?
