Atletico Madrid are interested in signing Manchester United winger Antony during the summer transfer window, according to El Chiringuito.
The La Liga giants are likely to bolster their wide attacking department for next season and have been impressed with Antony’s progress this year.
The Brazilian signed for Real Betis on loan from the Red Devils last winter and has been brilliant for them with six goals and four assists so far.
Diego Simeone is reportedly impressed by his contributions at Betis. The Argentine tactician has urged the hierarchy to make an approach.
United are prepared to offload Antony on his return from Betis. Betis prefer to keep him on loan but are unlikely to be granted their request.
The Red Devils are expected to demand between £34m-42m to part ways with the former Ajax man, who has no future under manager Ruben Amorim.
Amorim has clearly indicated that he would prefer a different option. The club could use the funds recouped to pursue a deal for Matheus Cunha from Wolves.
