Antony compared him to Ronaldo and Neymar. |
Speaking to Mundobetis , center-back Marc Bartra affirmed that Antony is currently at his best. “The La Liga style suits him perfectly. This is a top-class Antony, even better than before. He has the spirit of Cristiano and the Brazilian flair. I’ve always said Antony is a blend of Neymar and Ronaldo,” Bartra commented.
Antony moved to Betis after a prolonged slump at Manchester United. In the Premier League, the Brazilian struggled with the physically demanding environment, the monotonous style of play, and the immense pressure. From a highly anticipated signing, he became a symbol of the Red Devils' attacking deadlock.
Betis marked a crucial turning point. From a loan deal to a permanent transfer for €25 million plus add-ons, Antony gradually revived his career. The slower pace, higher technical skill, and attacking freedom of La Liga helped him regain his confidence and creativity. Betis fans saw him as an inspiration in big matches, while teammates appreciated his training attitude and efforts to rebuild his career.
At Betis, Antony diversified his playing style, no longer relying on his familiar dribbling moves. He actively dribbled in both directions, linked up well with the full-backs, and created more chances. The sharpness that Antony had lost in England is gradually returning.
Antony's biggest challenge right now is maintaining his form. Betis sees him as a key player in their ambition to qualify for the European Championship. If he continues his impressive run, the door to the 2026 World Cup remains wide open for the 25-year-old.
