Manchester United flop Antony has arrived in Spain ahead of his loan move to Real Betis.
The Brazilian has said he is “so happy” after agreeing to a six-month loan deal with the La Liga club after failing to impress at United.
Antony will seal his move to Betis today and will undergo his medical tests to get the deal over the line this weekend.
And the United Forward extraordinaire is clearly excited about returning to the pitch as he told reporters at the airport: “I'm so happy, I'm ready”.
Antony will be hoping to secure more minutes with the Spanish club after failing to make any appearances for Man Utd this season.
Since his £86million arrival from Ajax in 2022, Antony has scored just five Premier League goals in 62 league appearances for the Red Devils.
United and Antony will both be hoping regular minutes are on the horizon at Betis after it was reported that the deal included penalty clauses regarding how often the South American is used.
It is understood that Betis will cover at least 84 per cent of the star's wages – which is believed to be more than £100,000 per week.
While the Spanish outfit will also pay Antony's bonuses at the end of the season.
It does not appear that it will be a permanent end to Antony's time at Old Trafford with no buy clause included in the loan move.
Antony's current terms with United run until June 2027, with United having the option to extend the deal for a further year.
