Anthony has failed to make a positive impact in the club since he arrived from Ajax in England. The Brazilian came with the Dutch coach Erik Ten Hag who preferred the winger from his former club after taking charge at Manchester United.
Manchester United Send Anthony On A Loan Deal To Real Betis With No Buy Option Which Could Help Red Devils In Managing The PSR
Around £86 million was paid to the Dutch club to bring the 24-year-old to Old Trafford who earns around £200k in the club. Anthony had made no impact on the Eric Ten Hag era as he had only 9 goals and 3 assists in 87 appearances in the red jersey in all competitions. And after leaving Ten Hag, the Brazilian is no longer a preferred player for Amorim.
Amorim has a long list of players not used for his starting 11 and Manchester United is looking forward to selling them or offloading them for a loan to maintain the balance to avoid PSR violation. After the confirmed deal of Anthony, the Red Devils might look for Garnacho who is heavily linked to Napoli.

So, United has to consider another deal for next summer for the Brazilian before he becomes a free agent.
Manchester United is Liable to Pay Some of the Anthony's Salary as a Part of the Deal
The English side is set to contribute some of the wages during this short-term loan option to Real Betis. The Brazilian is yet to start in the premier league under Amorim Making his career stagnant in England similar to "Sancho incident" happened the previous year.
It is a smart move from the Red Devils to ensure a game time for Anthony that can help him revive his form and boost confidence in the playing 11. A successful loan could increase the player value which can help Manchester get a better deal for the Brazilian to get some money back they paid to Ajax.
