Juventus join Atletico Madrid in race to sign Manchester United winger Antony - reports
Juventus have reportedly joined Atletico Madrid and Villarreal in the race to sign Manchester United winger Antony, whose resurgence on loan at Real Betis has reignited interest across Europe, according to Football Espana.
Antony has rediscovered his form since making a January switch to Betis, contributing eight goals and five assists in 22 appearances across all competitions. His displays have helped Betis reach the UEFA Conference League final.
However, Betis face a major financial hurdle in securing a permanent move. With Antony valued between €40-50 million, the La Liga side would likely need to qualify for the Champions League to afford a full transfer - a tough task as they currently sit just outside the top five, trailing Villarreal by three points for the final qualification spot.
While Betis remain hopeful of extending Antony’s stay through another loan, the growing interest from European heavyweights complicates their plans. Juventus and Atletico have reportedly expressed concrete interest, with Villarreal also making the Brazilian a summer priority. Manchester United are understood to be open to selling the winger, placing Betis at a disadvantage in what could become a competitive transfer battle.
