Real Betis winger Antony is reportedly fired up to face parent club Manchester United in the UEFA Europa Conference League final. He viewed it as a chance to send a message after a difficult spell at Old Trafford.
The Brazilian, on loan at Betis, is expected to start in the final.
United boss Ruben Amorim, previously described the campaign as a “disaster” and has reportedly greenlit a major squad overhaul this summer, with Antony among the names on the chopping block.
Despite being one of United’s marquee signings in 2022, Antony’s inconsistent performances and lack of end product saw him fall out of favour.
However, at Betis, he has shown flashes of the form that earned his Premier League move. The final offers a high-stakes platform to stake his claim.
While Amorim prepares to reshape his squad, Antony appears ready to remind the club of his potential.
