Como unexpectedly enters the race to sign Antony, competing with Real Betis.

VHO - Antony is ready to leave Old Trafford to seek a new chapter after turbulent months in the Premier League.

Antony, the Brazilian winger, is one of five Manchester United players who have expressed a desire to leave the club permanently during this summer's transfer window. After half a season on loan at Real Betis, Antony impressed with 9 goals and 5 assists in 26 games, leading the Spanish club to want to keep him long-term.

According to SPORT , although Antony is eager to return to Betis, there is still no official agreement between the two clubs on a permanent transfer. Betis is reportedly looking to extend the deal until the end of the summer transfer window and plans to acquire a partial ownership stake in Antony before completing the full deal next year.

Antony cost Manchester United £85 million (equivalent to €98.6 million) when he moved from Ajax in 2022. Therefore, the Red Devils want to recoup some of that investment. However, whether Betis has the financial capacity to meet MU's asking price remains a big question. Furthermore, the 25-year-old player may also have to accept a significant reduction in his current salary for the deal to materialize.

Meanwhile, Betis' hesitation could open up opportunities for other teams. One potential rival is Como, a newly promoted Serie A team currently managed by former midfielder Cesc Fabregas. The Italian club is said to have expressed interest in Antony and could enter the race if Betis fails to reach an agreement as expected.

With the summer transfer window still open, Antony's future remains a big question mark. However, one thing is clear: the Brazilian star is ready to leave Old Trafford to seek a new chapter after a turbulent period in the Premier League.
