The performance is very satisfying, Betis will do his best to retain Manchester United star

Betis will do his best to keep Anthony

Real Betis sports director Manu Fajado recently said in an interview with Ass that the club will do its best to sign Manchester United winger Anthony this summer and hope to complete a formal transfer with the Brazil international.

"We will try every possible way to keep Anthony at Betis next season." Fajado said, "We are proud of everything Anthony has done. He has performed very professionally and has shown a high level after coming to the team. We really hope to have such a player for a long time."

Although Betis expressed strong interest and sincerity, the biggest problem before them is financial pressure. Missing the Champions League next season has also put a lot of financial restrictions on this La Liga mid-range club.

It is revealed that Manchester United's price for Anthony is as high as £40 million (about €47 million), which is far beyond Betis' ability to bear it. Therefore, the club is considering other viable options, such as negotiating with Manchester United to extend the lease contract for one year, or attempting to complete the transaction in a "partial ownership" manner.

Anthony, 25, joined Manchester United from Ajax for a high price of £86 million in 2022, but his performance at Old Trafford has not been up to expectations. In January this year, he was loaned to Betis by the Red Devils and started a new career. In Spain, his form has improved significantly, representing the team, he has contributed 8 goals and 5 assists so far, becoming an important force on the team's offensive end.

For Anthony himself, staying at Betis not only means a more stable playing time, but also helps him stay competitive in the Brazilian national team. For Betis, whether he can finally retain this shining Brazilian winger will become a major highlight of the transfer market this summer.
