Real Betis Balompié is exploring options to try to retain Antony in their squad, who arrived on loan from Manchester United until the end of the season. The Brazilian has showcased his quality in the first few months in LaLiga, becoming a key piece for Manuel Pellegrini, leading the green and white club to consider the possibility of keeping him beyond June.

A tremendously complicated and costly operation

However, the operation seems practically impossible. The loan agreement did not include a purchase option, and sources from England have hinted that they would be willing to let him go permanently for a sum close to 50 million euros, a price that Betis cannot afford. In addition to this high transfer cost, there is the high salary of the winger, who earns around 14 million euros annually, a figure completely out of reach for the Andalusian team.

Faced with this scenario, the only viable alternative would be to negotiate a new loan deal, but Antony's impressive performances have aroused the interest of other European clubs with greater financial capacity. This significantly reduces Betis' options, as they would need a drastic reduction in Manchester United's demands or the player's willingness to significantly lower his salary.
