Overview

• Real Betis confirmed the deadline-day signing, with the Brazil winger agreeing a contract that runs until 2030.
• Sources say Betis will pay €22 million plus €3 million in potential bonuses, and Manchester United retain 50% of any future transfer.
• The transfer briefly faltered over a reported salary-reduction dispute before being finalised at the close of the window.
• At his unveiling, Antony broke down in tears, saying only his family knew how hard his United spell was and that he spent more than 40 days in a hotel awaiting the move.
• He said Bayern Munich made a late approach but he kept his word to Betis, as United accept a significant loss relative to their €95m outlay in 2022.
