Spin, jump, I close my eyes! Manchester United's "compass" Antony, despite having had a bit of an opportunity under new coach Amorim, has finally come to the end of his relationship with the team and has been loaned out to La Liga's Betis. Cristiano Ronaldo once said that Manchester United is like a fish tank; when you put a fish in it, it gets sick, but when you take it out, it recovers. Antony, this spinning fish, finally has the chance to recover. To be honest, the Premier League does offer high income, but not all players can adapt to it. Antony's footwork is absolutely top-notch, but he suffers from his physique. In the face of the robust physical challenges from the burly players in the Premier League, Antony's slender frame appears somewhat too fragile. A change of scenery can be as good as a rest; moving to the technically refined, fast-paced but less physically demanding La Liga might just be what Antony needs to transform into a dragon upon encountering the right circumstances! Antony's joining Betis will pair him up with Roco to form a loaned front-line duo. It's a classic combination of height and speed! And both being Brazilian compatriots, their communication will be very smooth. Don't forget that Betis' midfield also boasts former top stars like Isco and Rui Rui, and the defense includes familiar faces like Bartra. Antony really might be on the upswing!

According to multiple media reports, Brazilian international Antony, who was acquired by Manchester United for 100 million euros from Ajax, has reached a verbal agreement to join La Liga's Betis on loan. United will cover part of Antony's salary. This season, the Brazilian international has only played 401 minutes and his market value has dropped to 20 million euros. Will he be able to deliver outstanding performances and prove his worth in the Spanish league? A Brazilian international full of feints, excelling at Ajax but unable to establish himself at Manchester United As a Brazilian player, Antony is naturally gifted with ball control. During his time at Ajax, he demonstrated excellent ability to break through on the flanks, using his feints to create breakthroughs and complete assists and goals. In European competitions, Antony also had impressive moments, especially in the match between Ajax and Sporting Portugal, where he performed heroically. It should be noted that at that time, Manchester United's current manager, Amorim, watched Antony's performance live. However, after joining Manchester United, although Antony scored in his debut and helped United defeat Arsenal 3-1, after a brief highlight, this "100 million euro man" fell into a long-term injury and "firing blanks" state. His famous feints became a joke in the Premier League, which emphasizes physicality. As a winger, he couldn't break through, and his cutting inside shots lost their effectiveness once opponents became familiar with them. Transferring to Betis, can he prove his worth?‌ Currently, Manchester United seems to have become a "black hole for stars," with many excellent players…

Oral Agreement Reached!‌ On January 19th, Beijing time, Spanish media Relevo's renowned journalist Matteo Moretto and famous transfer reporter Fabrizio Romano revealed that Manchester United winger Antony has joined Real Betis on a pure loan deal. Antony is a transaction in Manchester United's history that will never be forgotten. In August 2022, the transfer fee was 95 million euros, but two and a half years later, his value dropped to only 20 million. New coach Amorim could not save this asset, with only 7 substitute appearances in the league this season, playing for 127 minutes with no goals or assists. The management had long planned to clean him up, but after circling around the transfer market, there were no takers. Only La Liga club Real Betis and Greek Super League powerhouse Olympiacos were willing to rent him. Dongzi personally did not want to leave the top five leagues, eliminating the latter. Real Betis sold Assane Diouss to Como and loaned Rui Silva to Sporting Portugal, freeing up space before finally submitting an official loan application to Manchester United. Pure loan, without any buyout clauses, with Manchester United covering part of the salary expenses. It can also be seen as a disguised subsidy to get rid of him, so as not to be an eyesore. In fact, free rental doesn't offer much benefit. We can only hope that Antony can perform well in half a season, attracting more potential buyers next summer to recover tens of millions of euros in losses. But the probability of this is too low, it would…

Anthony, once a forward demanded by former Manchester United manager Ten Hag upon his appointment, has experienced a dark period at the club. In this season alone, he has only managed to score one goal in 13 games, spending most of his time as a substitute. Manchester United is eager to resolve the situation with this underperforming player and has proposed a solution: subsidizing his salary to facilitate a loan move for Anthony. Spanish media outlet Relevo's renowned journalist Matteo Moretto reported that Real Betis is interested in securing Anthony on loan but without an option to buy. Betis is looking for a short-term loan during the winter transfer window to assess his performance. This arrangement is indeed cost-effective, considering Anthony's relatively high wages. By loaning him out with United covering part of his salary, Betis can manage the financial aspect, and given Anthony's young age and peak years ahead, he has the potential to excel. Anthony himself is keen on joining a team that can offer him consistent playing time, allowing him to re-establish himself. Despite his technical abilities, Anthony's physicality and speed have not been favored in the Premier League, where he struggles to compete against stronger opponents. This has hindered his ability to dribble past defenders and create scoring opportunities. A move to La Liga, where the physical demands are less intense, could provide Anthony with the opportunity to prove himself. Manchester United also hopes that he will rediscover his value and can be sold off sooner rather than later.

After two months under the guidance of Amorim, Manchester United is gradually finding its form, with a draw against Liverpool in the Premier League away game, an FA Cup victory over Arsenal with one less player on the road, and a comeback win against Southampton at home. With the winter transfer window now open, Manchester United manager Amorim has begun to make changes to the team's lineup. On January 19th, Beijing time, transfer expert Fabrizio Romano reported that Manchester United is in discussions with Real Betis regarding a deal involving Antony. Romano stated that the transfer plan involves Antony joining Real Betis on loan until June, without a buyout clause. Manchester United will cover part of the player's salary, and Antony is open to the move to Real Betis, with the deal close to being finalized. Antony's performance at Manchester United has been poor, and his salary is high. It is understandable that Manchester United would want to loan him out. Antony has not been able to secure consistent playing time at Manchester United and could benefit from a change of scenery at Real Betis. Real Betis has a history of signing players who have been let go by top clubs, such as Isco from Real Madrid, Riqui Puig from Barcelona, Adrian from Liverpool, and Giovani Lo Celso from Tottenham Hotspur. During Antony's loan period, Manchester United will pay part of the player's salary, allowing Real Betis to test the 24-year-old former Brazilian international, who could provide additional options for their La Liga and Europa League campaigns. Looking back, it…

In January's winter transfer window, Manchester United has yet to make any signings or clearances. However, the first player set to leave United during the winter window is becoming increasingly clear: compared to Rashford, Casemiro, and Garnacho, it is Anthony who is closest to departing. On January 17th, multiple media outlets including Spain's Marca and Britain's Daily Mail reported that Manchester United and Betis are accelerating the loan deal for Anthony. The 24-year-old Anthony is considered one of the worst signings in Manchester United's history. In the summer of 2022, United spent a hefty sum of 95 million euros fixed plus 5 million euros variable to bring Anthony from Ajax. Over the course of two and a half years at United, Anthony has never proven his worth. In the 2024-25 season, Anthony made only 13 appearances for United, scoring just 1 goal, with no goals in 7 Premier League matches. Under Amorim, Anthony has had no opportunities. Leaving United to find playing time is the best choice for Anthony. Marca revealed that La Liga's Betis is pushing for the loan deal for Anthony. Last December, Betis contacted United to discuss the loan of Anthony, and by the end of December, Betis had submitted an offer, hoping to secure Anthony on loan during the winter window. United is willing to loan out Anthony but hopes that Betis will increase the loan fee and take on more of the salary. Spanish media reported that Betis is preparing to submit a second offer in hopes of quickly completing the loan deal for Anthony.…

If we were to say that the most outstanding player in Manchester United's attack this season, it would be none other than Amad Diallo, who successfully renewed his contract with the club for a period of 5 and a half years on the 10th. At 4 am Beijing time on January 17th, in the 21st round of the Premier League in the 24-25 season, Manchester United hosted Southampton at home. Amad staged a 12-minute hat-trick in the closing stages, helping the team turn the game around from 0-1 to 3-1, becoming the first since Cristiano Ronaldo. It is hard to imagine that this young key player from Côte d'Ivoire was ranked lower than Anthony under Ten Hag! In this match at Old Trafford, Manchester United did not show the fiery form they should have had at home after the opening. Especially between the 20th and 30th minutes, there were significant problems with Manchester United's midfield control, with a possession rate of only 30%. The popular English talent Dibrin and Ghanaian winger Sulimana did indeed pose a considerable threat to Manchester United's defense, although both were able to approach the opponent's goal on their own, they were not particularly adept at scoring, hence Southampton missed several scoring opportunities in succession. In the 43rd minute of the game, Southampton gained a corner kick opportunity on the left side, Dibrin's header brushed the ball, which then hit Ugart and rebounded into the net, an own goal! Manchester United trailed 0-1 at home! Who could have thought that Manchester United would not have the…

In the early hours of today, a fierce battle unfolded in the 21st round of the Premier League, with Manchester United hosting Southampton at their home ground. In the first half, Ugart scored an own goal, and in the closing stages of the second half, Diawara scored three goals within 12 minutes, helping Manchester United to a 3-1 comeback victory over Southampton. However, it was Anthony's wasted open goal opportunity in the 59th minute after coming on as a substitute in the second half that sparked heated debate. Let's take a look. Ganacho broke into the left side of the penalty area and then crossed the ball in front of the goal. Anthony followed up to meet the ball and shoot. Just as everyone thought Anthony was about to score as a substitute, an astonishing moment occurred. Anthony, facing an open goal, actually kicked the ball towards the opposing goalkeeper, who then easily saved it. It can be said that Anthony really missed a golden opportunity for an open goal. Normally, a goal like this could be scored with your eyes closed, but in Anthony's feet, it turned into an impossible chance. This incident has sparked heated discussions among fans. Fan 1 said: "It's harder to miss this ball than to score." Fan 2 said: "He blushed after kicking it himself, it was too abstract."

For Manchester United, it seems that they have gradually regained their form after remaining undefeated in the past two strong confrontations. Looking at the situation faced in various competitions, in the Premier League, they are 12 points away from the top four, and if they want to catch up later, they not only need to perform exceptionally well but also need several main competitors to falter. In cup competitions, Manchester United still has a chance to win the championship. In the eyes of the outside world, if they can eventually win the domestic cup championship in such a transitional season, it will also be a good result. At the same time, in the first transfer window after Amorim took over the team, Manchester United is brewing several important transfers. The "Teng-style recruitment standards" have been completely rejected. In the past two and a half seasons, former Manchester United manager Ten Haag had a high say in recruitment, and the team completed several big-money transfer signings. However, judging from the actual results, these players were mostly unsuccessful, including some typical failure cases. Especially Anthony. This Brazilian winger almost put Manchester United in a situation of "losing everything." In this transfer window, several teams have inquired about Anthony's situation and are expected to send an official offer to the Red Devils, but they estimate Anthony at only 20 million euros. Besides Anthony, other players such as Zirkzee, Malacia, and Mount have basically been abandoned. Currently, the "Teng-style recruitment standards" have been completely rejected. According to the "Evening News," Amorim has communicated with…
