Wolves aims at Lopez, Celta holds on to 20 million euros

Tuqiu.com reported on June 15 that Manchester United legend and former Ajax CEO Van dersar boldly called on the Red Devils to recall Anthony, who was loaned out, to the team. This remark has attracted widespread attention in the football world.

Anthony joined Manchester United from Ajax in the summer of 2022 with a transfer fee of up to £86 million. However, during the two and a half years at Old Trafford, he has never been able to replicate his highlight performance in the Eredivisie, and was once labeled as a "parallel" and even completely lost his position after Ruben Amorin took office. This winter window, Anthony joined Real Betis on loan, but unexpectedly ushered in a turning point in his career. In La Liga, he quickly integrated into the team, represented Betis in 26 games, contributed 9 goals and 5 assists, and with a series of exciting performances, he successfully helped the team enter the Europa League final, not only winning back the call for the Brazilian national team, but also gained the nickname "Yuan God".

Van der Sar said when talking about Manchester United's transfer strategy this summer: "Luckily, I no longer hold a position that needs to decide on the club's signing. However, they are now signing more mature strikers (such as Cunya) with the right direction, and they may buy another one in the next (Mbemo's transfer is also advancing). The two players introduced in the winter window are very good. As long as coach Ruben Amorin is trusting enough, the team should be fine." He specifically mentioned, "Maybe Garnacho will leave the team? I want me to say that Anthony should be recalled, but I am not sure whether this idea is realistic." Van der Sar believes that after his experience at Betis, Anthony's ability and mentality have improved. If he returns to Manchester United, he is expected to regain his new tactical system.

Although Betis favors Anthony and the player himself expressed his love for everything about Betis, since Manchester United priced it for about £35 million, Betis has great pressure on transfer fees and salary, and the possibility of Anthony returning to Manchester United has increased greatly. Now, Van der Sar's call adds more suspense to Anthony's future. Whether Manchester United will re-activate the Brazilian winger is worth looking forward to.
