Manchester United loanee, Antony, has aimed a subtle dig at the Red Devils after insisting that Real Betis fans are incredible.

The Brazilian international said he is happy when he goes to sleep at Real Betis.

Antony was loaned out to Real Betis a few months ago by Manchester United after failing to impress at the Premier League club.

However, the winger has been impressive since joining the LaLiga side on loan.

Antony was has scored nine goals and provided five assists since joining Real Betis.

The 25-year-old was on target on Friday as Real Betis played a 1-1 draw with Valencia in their final LaLiga match of the season.

Speaking after the game, Antony said he is happy all day at Real Betis.

“Here at Betis I’m happy when I go to sleep and when I wake up… all day happy,” Antony was quoted by Fabrizio Romano as saying.

“I don’t know what’s gonna happen with my future but I’m so happy here. These fans are incredible.”

It’s yet to be seen if Antony will decide to make his deal at Real Betis permanent or return to Man United this summer.

Super Eagles playmaker, Alex Iwobi, has admitted they are waiting to see if the team would still play at the 2026 World Cup.

The Nigeria Football Federation, NFF, is optimistic of a potential lifeline from FIFA, after it submitted a petition against the Democratic Republic of Congo.

Iwobi was asked by SuperSport if he would rather lift the AFCON 2025 trophy or qualify for the World Cup?

The 29-year-old, who played at the 2018 of the World Cup, replied: “I mean we’re still waiting, well hopefully we can go to the World Cup, but I feel it’s a tough one.

“It’s a tough one because winning AFCON is like… It’s a great legacy, it’s a great thing to have like in your career, a memorable moment.

“But then at the same time, because I’ve been to the World Cup already, a lot of the players haven’t been. They would like to say ‘I want to go to the World Cup,’ so I can’t be selfish and say win the AFCON and for my teammates to not go to the World Cup. So it’s a tough one. I don’t know. I don’t know.”
