Antony is finally on the move from Manchester United on a permanent basis.

Manchester United have agreed a deal for Antony to leave the club on a permanent transfer - but fans have spotted a major problem.

The Brazil winger spent the second half of the 2024/25 season on loan at Spanish side Real Betis.

He significantly impressed in Spain but was placed in Manchester United's 'bomb squad' upon his return by Ruben Amorim.

Antony did not feature in United's pre-season matches and was not named in the matchday squad for any of their opening three fixtures of the season.

With under 72 hours left of the transfer window, they have finally come to a resolution over the Brazilian's future.

That's according to Sky Sports reporter Dharmesh Sheth, who reports that United have accepted a permanent offer for Antony from Betis.

The winger will now travel to Betis to finalise the move, and will need to agree personal terms with Manuel Pellegrini's side.

The Spanish side initially walked away from a move for the 25-year-old earlier in the window, but have re-opened negotiations in recent days.

However, fans have noticed that, among the reporting of Antony's move, there is no mention of a potential fee that United could receive.
