Antony<\/a>’s agent insists the winger’s future at Manchester United<\/a> ‘remains an open story’ and his client has nothing but ‘respect’ for head coach Ruben Amorim<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The much-maligned forward has so far failed to live up to his eye-watering \u00a382million price tag across a spectacularly underwhelming two-and-a-half year stay with the Red Devils.<\/p>\n

In the hope of resurrecting his stuttering career, Antony completed a January loan move to Real Betis, keen for a fresh start away from the unrelenting spotlight of Old Trafford.<\/p>\n

Having managed a total of just one goal in all competitions for United this term, Antony appears to have found a new lease of life and has hit the ground running in Spain.<\/p>\n

The 24-year-old Brazil international has found the back of the net in each of his last two matches for Betis and will hope to continue his scoring streak at home to Real Sociedad in La Liga this weekend.<\/p>\n

Many had already written off Antony’s United career given his struggles over the last few seasons, with Gary Neville recently picking the attacker out as one of the club’s lousiest ever signings<\/a>.<\/p>\n

But according to Antony’s representative Junior Pedroso, Antony himself remains hopeful of turning his fortunes around under Amorim at the Theatre of Dreams.<\/p>\n

‘Saudi Arabian and Premier League clubs wanted him [in January] but Real Betis was the best solution, he’s so happy there,’ Pedroso told Fabrizio Romano<\/a>. <\/p>\n

‘There’s no buy option and he respects Amorim a lot.<\/p>\n

‘His future at Manchester United remains an open story.’<\/p>\n

Facing the media ahead of United’s trip to Tottenham, Amorim intimated that he was pleased to see Antony enjoying his football and playing with a smile on his face again.<\/p>\n

The Portuguese suggested Antony may be benefitting from being ‘more free’ and playing ‘without pressure’ away from a club of United’s stature in the world game.<\/p>\n

\u2018Sometimes it\u2019s like that, it can happen in any club,\u2019 Amorim responded when asked why had managed to be such an instant success with Real Betis.<\/p>\n
