Antony (Real Betis)
November 2025
Betis remain undefeated in Europe, driven by Antony’s end-product: four La Liga goals, one assist, plus two goals and an assist in the Europa League. Manuel Pellegrini now views the winger as undroppable as qualification nears. Pellegrini highlighted Antony and Ez Abde’s form as rotation dampeners. Antony’s Mallorca brace—long-range strike and curled finish—mirrored Ajax-era confidence despite a curtailed pre-season, reinforcing his fit and role security for Thursday-Sunday cycles.
