Antony, Brazil footballer: Profile, Career, News & Videos

Antony , known mononymously as Antony (Brazilian Portuguese pronunciation: [ˈɐ̃.tõ.ni]), is a Brazilian professional footballer who plays as a right winger for La Liga club Real Betis and the Brazil national team.

Antony graduated from the São Paulo academy and made his senior debut for the club in 2018. He moved abroad to Ajax in the summer of 2020, where he won two Eredivisie titles and one KNVB Cup during his two seasons. Antony's performances in the Netherlands led to a transfer worth €95 million (£82 million) to Premier League side Manchester United, the highest sum paid for an Eredivisie player. He fell out of favour at Manchester United after manager Erik ten Hag, who had managed Antony at Ajax, was replaced by Ruben Amorim in November 2024. He was loaned to Real Betis in January 2025 for the remainder of the 2024–25 season, before joining the club permanently that summer.

Antony won a gold medal with the Brazil under-23 team at the 2020 Summer Olympics. He then made his senior international debut and scored against Venezuela in October 2021, going on to represent Brazil at the 2022 FIFA World Cup.
