Manchester United and Antony want to say goodbye and the Brazilian winger is happy to make a sacrifice to facilitate a transfer in the coming weeks after his real betis loan
Manchester United Wantaway star Antony is willing to take a 30 percent paycut to leave Old Trafford this summer. The decision of the winger has encouraged the hope of interested parties, namely real betis, to be able to close a deal.
It is said that Antony currently reaches £ 150,000 a week with the Red Devils and is willing to lower his expectations to facilitate a movement. The drop would still see him ask for £ 95,000 a week.
United hopes this summer to offer a fee for the former Ajax wing player to stimulate their money, whereby the club requires £ 32.58 million to prevent a loss under the profit and sustainability rules. That figure was spent far below the £ 85 million United in 2022.
Antony was unable to impress after the arrival of Ruben Amorim, but found a new life in Spain after making a loan in January to Betis. The Brazilian registered 14 target contributions in 26 games to help the club reach the final of the Conference League.

Antony has given his preference to return to Betis Clear. “I love the club, the city, everything. The sunshine, the people, the food: it reminds me of Brazil,” he said earlier.
'And more importantly, I have found myself. I didn't play much [at Manchester United ]. I had to be happy in myself. “
Amorim is impatient to see new signing sessions this summer, with the pace of the transfer trade of United this summer not yet completely in gear. The Red Devils have added Matheus Cunha to their team, but have not made much progress on incoming or outgoing transfers.
Amorim wants new players on the plane for the three-game tour of United through the United States that sees the United Boss the Tour as the ideal environment to integrate new players and to learn his system.
The 40-year-old also wants United to discharge players that he does not want as quickly as possible. None of Marcus Rashford, Jadon Sancho, Alejandro Garnacho and Antony are in his plans.
Rashford wants to move to Barcelona, ​​while Sancho has attracted interest from Italy after having canceled his permanent move to Chelsea. The blues paid a fine to return to their agreement with United.
