Antony has voiced his joy at completing a move away from Manchester United. The Brazilian winger has been granted permission by the Red Devils to travel to Spain after reaching an agreement with Real Betis.

The Spanish side are set to sign Antony on loan until the end of the season, having agreed to cover a significant portion of his wages. Reports suggest that Betis could face financial penalties if the winger does not receive sufficient playing time during his loan spell.

Speaking to journalists upon his arrival at a Spanish airport, Antony expressed his enthusiasm for the transfer, saying: "I'm so happy, I'm ready." The move brings an end to Antony's underwhelming spell at Old Trafford following his £85 million transfer from Ajax. Despite making 96 appearances for United, the 24-year-old only managed to score 12 goals during his time at the club.

This season, Antony has found playing time hard to come by, starting just three matches across all competitions. While he may need to wait until next weekend to make his Real Betis debut, Saturday’s fixture against Mallorca is deemed too soon for him to feature.

Last month, Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim pledged to help Antony regain his confidence, stating: *"He needs more confidence. If you remember the Antony at Ajax, he lacks a little bit of belief to take players on one-v-one, so he will improve.

"But he's working really hard, he's trying, and he's playing more centrally than out wide, especially in this game (against Tottenham). He just needs to keep working hard, and that will help him become a better player."

Meanwhile, Alejandro Garnacho and Marcus Rashford are also the subjects of transfer speculation. Napoli are reportedly keen on Garnacho, while Chelsea have expressed interest in the Argentine forward. It is believed that United would demand a fee of around £70 million for his services.

As for Rashford, his transfer options appear to be narrowing. A move to AC Milan looks increasingly unlikely after their loan acquisition of Kyle Walker from Manchester City. Borussia Dortmund and Barcelona have also been linked to Rashford, but neither club has taken significant steps to secure his signature.
