Manchester United are in line to earn a significant bonus if winger Antony leads Real Betis to the Europa Conference League title this season. The final between Real Betis and Chelsea will take place at 2am on May 29 at the Miejski Stadium in Poland.

Antony has shown a strong revival since moving to Real Betis on loan from the "red devils" in the winter transfer window.

Having failed to find a place under coach Ruben Amorim at Old Trafford and struggled to adapt to the intensity of the Premier League, Antony has shone brightly in La Liga, where there is a greater emphasis on technical play.

He has contributed 9 goals and 5 assists after 25 appearances for the Andalusian team. At the same time, he has become a key factor in the attack of coach Manuel Pellegrini.

Especially in the semi-final match against Fiorentina, Antony was the hero with a double against David De Gea, contributing greatly to bringing Betis to the final.

Real Betis are keen to keep Antony at Villamarin beyond this season. However, Man United are said to be willing to sell the Brazilian for a minimum of £32.5m, a figure that could be beyond Betis' means.

However, the "Red Devils" still have reason to be happy. Real Betis's 6th place finish in La Liga this season and qualification for next season's Europa League has triggered a clause in the loan agreement, helping Man United receive 150,000 euros.

More importantly, according to ABC (Spain), if Real Betis defeat Chelsea in the Europa Conference League final and Antony plays at least 50% of the matches on the way to the final (a condition that is almost met), Man United will receive another 365,000 euros.

In total, the Old Trafford team can "pocket" an additional 515,000 euros (about 15 billion VND) from the Antony loan deal. In the context of the Man United leadership carrying out a strong reform of the squad under coach Amorim, every penny is precious to them.

Therefore, this amount of money will certainly be a welcome addition to the "red devils" budget.
