Real Betis finally reach agreement with Man United for Antony transfer
It took Brazilian winger Antony less than half a year to win over the hearts of Real Betis fans. The Spanish club pulled out all the stops to keep the player, and their efforts have finally paid off.
Details: According to The Athletic, Real Betis have reached an agreement with Manchester United to purchase Antony's contract. The transfer fee will be €25 million, but the Red Devils will retain 50% of any future resale of the winger. Additionally, Manchester United could earn up to €3 million in bonuses.
The terms of Antony's personal contract in the Andalusian capital remain undisclosed, but the main stumbling block—the compensation the Brazilian was due after a salary reduction—no longer stands in the way of the transfer.
Recall: Earlier today, another high-profile deal was finalized: Newcastle striker Alexander Isak's move to Liverpool for a record fee.
