In an interview with Betis’ in-house media channel this week, Antony claims Spain’s climate has helped a lot following his move and says that he ‘wakes up every day with a smile’ since leaving United.
Real Betis manager Manuel Pellegrini has hailed Antony’s attitude since joining on loan from Manchester United, with the winger in sparkling form in Spain.
The 24-year-old has made a great start to his short-term move, scoring two goals in his first three La Liga outings and three in four across all competitions.
The player is clearly enjoying himself much more with Betis than he was with the Red Devils, having failed to make a Premier League start this season before his January exit.
Former Manchester City and West Ham boss Pellegrini is clearly getting a lot more out of him than Erik ten Hag or Ruben Amorim managed to at Old Trafford.
