After Real Betis lost the Conference League final, Anthony started crying.
In Wroclaw, Poland, Chelsea overcame a halftime lead by the Spanish team to win 4-1.
.
At full time, Antony, who is now on loan at Manchester United, was observed crying.
Goalie Jadon Sancho hurried over to comfort him as he sat on the field in tears.
In heartwarming moments, the two former United teammates embraced.
Former West Ham teammates Adrian and Pablo Fornals were among the Betis players who were also spotted in tears.
With nine goals in 26 appearances since joining the team in January, Antony has grown to be a favorite among Seville’s supporters.
However, he lost his anger late in the game and was unable to duplicate his strong play against Chelsea in the final.
The two then faced up and banged heads after the Brazilian winger was sent off for a reckless challenge on Enzo Fernandez.
Although it’s unclear if Betis can afford to keep him, Antony has made it known that he wants to stay.
According to reports, Manchester United will not accept a deal at a reduced price, and they have been paying 16% of his weekly income of £200,000.
“Antony stay” was chanted by Betis supporters after the team defeated Fiorentina in the Conference League semifinal.
Club legend Joaquin even made a joke about helping to kidnap him so he wouldn’t go back to Old Trafford.
He stated: “I’ll provide the car if he has to be kidnapped, but let him stay no matter what.”
