REAL BETIS signed Manchester United winger Antony on loan on Saturday until the end of the season after a disastrous stint at Old Trafford.
The Brazil international, 24, became Man United’s second most expensive player ever when he joined from Ajax in 2022 for £81.3 million (€96 million).
“Real Betis and Manchester United have reached a deal for a loan of Antony for the current season,” said Betis in a statement.
Antony has scored 12 goals in 92 games for United, currently 13th in the Premier League, and has a contract at Old Trafford until 2027.
The winger started brightly after he arrived from Ajax, scoring on his first three appearances for former United coach Erik ten Hag, but soon dropped out of form and favour.
Antony was investigated by Brazilian police after allegations of domestic abuse, which he denied, with the investigation concluded without any charges being brought in August 2024.
Ten Hag said the allegations had played a part in the winger’s poor form.
Antony has not started a top-flight match for Manchester United this season, making eight appearances as a substitute.
Ten Hag’s successor Ruben Amorim has often opted for emerging talent Amad Diallo on the right flank, with Antony’s chances extremely limited.
The Brazilian joins a Real Betis side in mid-table and competes in the Uefa Conference League.
70 million euro to build one stand in a dilapidated stadium in a terrible location. Terrible decision.
Too late to stop this particular white elephant. Mores the pity. CCB have their priorities all wrong. Hurling in Cork slowly going down the tubes and money being wasted to satisfy egos.
The long walk in from town is part of the occasion and it’s a nice setting by the river but there needs to be a shuttle bus service or something sorted for the place. It’s a total dead end.
The long walk ain’t much fun in the pissing rain….
River ferries
Well, sir, there’s nothing on earth like a genuine, bona fide electrified, six-car monorail.
What’d I say?
Monorail …….
The long walk will be worse when you are going to watch cork play division 1 b hurling again
How many times have we complained the Pairc is a kip.
It’s needs to redeveloped, if the county board built a 30000 stadium you’d have people whinging it’s not big enough.
I say “build it and they will come ” this time not ghosts but real matches.
Agreement with the GAA..no such thing, will be all rosy until its built and then it will be Croke Park all over again.
Well i hope its not as disastrous as the total muck of a design that is in Castlebar. Poles everywhere in the stand. Then they plonk 4 huge flooding stanchions in each corner of the terraces for good measure. Limerick floodlighting the same. Felt sorry for all those fans stuck behind them for the semi-final replay. Prehistoric design!
When are we gonna get a nice cg flythrough of the stadium so we can get a proper look at it, like Casement. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eRSwZXUpiXE
Or when you realize it’s not soccer once you arrive
Did you watch the hurling on sunday Jim? Then the national soccer team? If you found the soccer more entertaining theres something wrong with you.
Clearly the hurling final was a classic. Comparing that to Ireland Georgia is like comparing a Kerry v Longford hurling match to the 1970 World Cup final.
… Replace Sundays match with any ireland match over the last 10 years.
Compare Ireland’s matches to any game played by the Longford hurlers…
Roughly sums up our world ranking…. I’m not being serious anyways, I’m just responding to the troll above.
I think it’s stupid when county’s get stadiums of over 40,000 because it never gets filled the big games go to croke park so it’s a waste there better off making a 20,000 stadium it would be better atmosphere
