Marca: Manchester United insists on selling Anthony only and not renting it, Betis considers buying part of the player s ownership

According to Marca, Manchester United insists on selling Anthony only and not renting it, and Real Betis is considering buying part of the ownership of the Brazilian winger.

Anthony's return to Betis is in a deadlock, and Manchester United insists on selling only and not renting. Since the end of last season, Betis, the player himself and Manchester United have been working to reach an agreement, but as the summer transfer window is about to close, there is still no significant progress.

The only new news is that Betis has given up on the possibility of introducing Anthony on loan. Manchester United refused to loan the Brazilian player again, only willing to transfer his ownership permanently through the sale, which made the transfer more complicated and expensive.

After four days of negotiations in Manchester, Betis' representatives have returned to Seville. Yesterday, club executives carefully studied the coronavirus situation and planned to make a final offer to Manchester United in a bid to end the negotiations as soon as possible. Betis has realized that renting is impossible and is considering ways to buy directly or force it by 2026 and is trying to make the deal financially accessible.

Betis is clear that it is almost impossible to meet the €50 million transfer fee required by Manchester United, so they will continue to fight for part of the purchase of players over the next time, similar to co-ownership, to move forward with the negotiation process. However, Betis must act with caution, considering the impact of transfer fees and player salaries on the salary cap.

If Manchester United still rejects Betis' efforts, then Betis will suspend the transfer operation while looking for other ways to strengthen the team's lineup. Although the club said the deal was very difficult, in recent hours, they believed the possibility of a deal increased slightly.
