    from the Athletic:

    https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/6072863/2025/01/24/antony-manchester-united-transfer-loan/

    The move will be a straight loan transfer without an option to buy for the remainder of the 2024-25 season, with the Spanish club to cover 84 per cent of the forward’s wages plus potential bonuses depending on performances for the loan period. There is no up front loan fee.

    The Brazil international, who currently earns £105,000 per week at United, will spend the second half of the season with Betis after featuring just 14 times for United this term.

      This is a much better deal than I was expecting.

      Fingers crossed he gets a new lease of life elsewhere. There is a great player there but his one trick approach was very quickly found out in the Prem. I think elsewhere in Europe he’d have more luck.

      If he pays well and we can get at about half our money back in transfer fee in the summer that would be decent.
