Antony's loan spell with Real Betis ended in disappointment (Image: Getty Images)
Manchester United's on-loan winger Antony has been left pondering his future after a bittersweet end to his stint with Real Betis with a crushing 4-1 defeat to Chelsea in the Conference League final. Despite seizing an early advantage at Wroclaw Stadium, Betis were ultimately undone by a rampant Chelsea side who staged a stunning second-half revival, netting four goals in a devastating 25-minute spell.
Antony's dream of capping off his loan spell with silverware was dashed after having played a pivotal role in Betis' journey to the final, contributing four goals and three assists across eight knockout fixtures. The Brazilian, who moved to Betis in January without a buy option in the deal, made a significant impact during his time in Spain, notching nine goals and five assists in 26 outings.

The La Liga club have expressed their desire to secure his services permanently when the summer window opens.
Yet, as the transfer market gears up to open this Sunday, Antony confessed to CBS Sports that his future remains uncertain, even though he has relished his time in Seville: "I don't what will happen in the future, only God knows. My work is playing and I'm doing that well.
"I have a lot of affection for Betis, for everyone but I have a contract with Man United and I don't know what's going to happen. Now I will go to the national team and then on holiday then we will see what happens in the future.
"I'm very happy here, everyone knows that but I have a contract."
According to the Manchester Evening News, United are keen on offloading three players during the summer transfer window with Antony being one they're looking to sell permanently. It's believed he could be let go for £32.5million.
