September 3 According to Spanish Radio Ser, Anthony was interviewed and talked about his feelings about returning to Betis.
How do you feel now?
is a little tired, but more about happiness and happiness. This will be an unforgettable day for me. My only choice is Betis. It is very important to feel the love of the fans and club staff.
Do you like the title "Antonio of Triana"? (Note: Triana is a district in Seville, Spain, dominated by Betis fans)
Of course. Now I like it more because what I have experienced today cannot be expressed in words. If (Brazil coach) Ancelotti uses "Anthony of Triana" to recruit players in the future, I will definitely be 100% sure that it is me (laugh).
This period of time is not easy for you, right?
It was very difficult, I arrived in Manchester on July 14, stayed in the hotel, just trained alone in the afternoon. It was very difficult, but my mind was only on Betis. I have a feeling that good things will come and now I am with my family and all the Betis fans, I feel very happy.
What are you thinking about in your mind during those weeks in Manchester?
It was a very difficult decision, I wanted to leave the UK and everyone knew that Betis was my number one choice. But I have a contract with Manchester United and have to respect that, so I never stop training hard and no matter how far I am from Betis, I have to work hard for myself in order to prepare myself for getting back to Betis.
Why are you more adaptable to Sevilla?
There are many similarities to Brazil here. I felt that my experience at Manchester United was tortuous, and I played more games in the first year there, but then there were some personal problems that were difficult and affected my performance on the court. Today I feel like a better and more mature player, so I am very grateful to Manchester United for my experience there, although the results are not ideal. Now I have to turn a new page, I am Betis' player.
Have you ever felt so loved elsewhere (like on Betis)?
I also feel loved in Ajax, but the fans here are different and they are very special.
What would you do if you had to choose between going to Sevilla (Note: Sevilla is Betis's mortal enemy in the city) or returning to Manchester United in the future?
My respect and enthusiasm for Betis I will never break because it is above everything else and if I had to make that decision I would definitely choose to go back to Manchester United.
Have you contacted Isco recently?
I talked to Isco a lot, and the last time was when we were about to fly to Sevilla, he was a great player and a great guy. I sent him a message when he was injured, hoping he would recover soon, and now we will have more time together.
