Antony accused Manchester United of disrespect before moving to Betis
Brazilian winger Antony opened up about the challenges he faced at Manchester United before his transfer to Real Betis.
Details: In an interview with El Desmarque, the footballer revealed he felt "disrespected" by the club while pushing for a move to Spain.
Antony noted he was forced to spend over 40 days in a hotel, training separately from the main squad.
"Those were very tough months in England: more than 40 days in a hotel, training alone... I felt disrespected. But I don't want to cause a scandal, that's life. I'm grateful to the club—there were bad times and good times, after all, I won two trophies," El Desmarque quotes the player as saying.
Manchester United signed Antony from Ajax in 2022 for £85 million. In January 2025, the Brazilian went on loan to Betis, and this summer his return to Andalusia was finalized as a permanent transfer.
Reminder: Antony stated that Manchester United is now in the past.
