The Athletic have revealed that Real Betis are in heated negotiations with Manchester United over the loan of winger Anthony and it appears that the two sides are on the verge of a breakthrough at the negotiating table. Anthony's transfer rumors are rife and Betis are clearly the most eye-catching of the many suitors.
It is reported that although Anthony is not a regular on United's payroll, if the loan deal is agreed, it will effectively reduce United's financial burden and provide a boost to the club in raising transfer funds. This is significant for United as they are eager to bring in strong reinforcements during the winter transfer window to boost the team's fighting power.
Aside from Betis, Greece's Olympiacos has also shown keen interest in Anthony. However, according to the latest developments, Betis seems to have a slight edge in the battle for his signature. Manchester United are open to Anthony's departure, with the intention of making a move to recoup funds and find a player who better fits Amorim's tactical system.
If Anthony does leave the club, Coach Amorim will be hoping to lock down a replacement quickly. The Portuguese is aware of the team's urgent need for a winger, and plans to make precise reinforcements during the winter transfer window. At the same time, United are also actively looking for suitable candidates to ensure that the team's strength is not affected by Anthony's departure.
