Manchester United has put an unexpected proposal on the table in order to definitively close Antony's exit: offering Jesus Rodriguez as part of a possible swap with Real Betis. The English club, aware that the Verdiblancos cannot afford the €50 million demanded for the Brazilian, wants to include the young Betis talent in the deal to lower the cost and facilitate an agreement that benefits both parties.

Antony has regained his form in Heliópolis. His loan to Betis has allowed him to enjoy football again and achieve positive numbers: five goals and four assists in just 17 matches that have helped Pellegrini's team stay in the Champions League race. This improvement has convinced the Andalusian board, who dream of keeping the winger beyond June. However, the price set by United makes it a challenging operation.

Manchester United Wants Jesus Rodriguez

This is where the name Jesus Rodriguez comes in. The 19-year-old, a Spanish U21 international, has piqued the interest of the Red Devils, who see him as a future investment. His talent and potential have made him one of the most promising gems in the Betis youth academy, to the extent that many at the club compare him to historical figures like Joaquín.

The operation, however, is far from simple. Betis knows that parting with Jesus could jeopardize part of the long-term project, and Pellegrini is not willing to let him go without a fight. The final word has not been spoken yet, but the Antony-Jesus exchange promises to become one of the most intense negotiations of the summer.
