Manchester United outcast Antony has rejected transfer offers from Botafogo and his boyhood club, Sao Paulo. The winger has been linked with a move away from Old Trafford this summer after falling out of favour with Ruben Amorim. Antony spent the second half of the 2024-25 campaign on loan at Real Betis, where he impressed by scoring nine goals.
Antony has been listed in United's 'bomb squad', which has been training separately away from the first-team group during the pre-season. Antony is accompanied by Alejandro Garnacho, Jadon Sancho and Tyrell Malacia as all four players have been tipped to leave the club this summer.
Antony has been approached by two Brazilian clubs, Botafogo and Sao Paulo - the latter of which gave him his start in the game. However, Antenados has reported that the Selecao star has made a firm decision not to return to his homeland this summer.
