Major signing in sight for Italiano! Antony on the verge of Turkish Super Lig move
Beşiktaş are seriously aiming to bolster their attacking line before the transfer window slams shut.
Details: According to renowned football insider Ekrem Konur, the Istanbul club's management has set its sights on Brazilian winger Antony. Strengthening the right flank of the attack is a top priority for the team's new head coach Vincenzo Italiano, who has personally added the 26-year-old to his transfer shortlist.
The Turkish powerhouse's bosses are prepared to make a major push and meet substantial financial demands to secure the player's transfer and seal a deal with him.
Negotiations promise to be tough, given the player's long-term commitments to his current club, but Beşiktaş's persistence and Italiano's trust could prove decisive in sealing the potential deal.
It's worth noting that in the 2025/26 season, Antony played for Spanish side Real Betis, having joined them permanently from Manchester United after a six-month loan spell. Last season in La Liga, the 26-year-old Brazilian forward featured in 32 matches for the Seville-based club, netting 8 goals and providing 6 assists. The winger's current contract with Real Betis runs until the summer of 2030, and respected portal Transfermarkt values his market worth at €40 million.
