'Environment is suiting him' - Antony told permanent Real Betis transfer the best move forward with Man Utd reject back to his best on loan in Spain

<p>Antony joined United in the summer of 2022 after impressing highly with Ajax. However, his performances with the Red Devils have been far from impressive. The Brazilian fell way down the ladder under Ruben Amorim this season and decided to join La Liga side Real Betis on a short loan deal.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Antony has been in fine form for Real Betis this season, and in 22 games he has gotten 13 goal contributions for Los Verdiblancos, which is just four less than he achieved in 96 games for United. Former Red Devils star Pallister has now advised Antony to stay at Real Betis and join Manuel Pellegrini's side on a free transfer.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Speaking to <a href="https://www.football-espana.net/2025/05/14/betis-barcelona-man-united-antony-rashford-pallister" target="_blank">Football Espana</a>, Pallister said: “I’ve not been able to watch many games over there, but I’ve heard the stories of how well he has done. When he was at Man United, the one thing I can say about Antony is that he never shied away; he never hid. Even though he would find it difficult, he always tried.</p><p>“It’s clear that a different environment is suiting him. He was under a lot more pressure at Old Trafford, and he appears much happier at Real Betis, where he is scoring a lot of getting assists. And because of this, I think there’s a real possibility that a deal is done, and that he stays there – I’m not sure that Antony will want to go back to Man United.”</p><p>“But even if not, he has put himself in the shop window – and this would have been Man United’s intention. Marcus Rashford has done it, and so has Jadon Sancho. They have all improved away from Old Trafford, where you’re really under the spotlight – especially when things are not going well.”</p>

WHAT PALLISTER SAID

<p>If reports surrounding Antony are to be believed, the Brazilian winger has no plans to stay at United this season, as he hopes to make a move away. As for Real Betis, there is uncertainty regarding the possibility of them being able to pay out the Red Devils' asking price.</p>
