As Erik ten Hag is the new manager of Bayer Leverkusen, there are reports incoming for his signings. Antony who went on a loan deal from Manchester United to Real Betis has been one of the names said to be in the list of Ten Hag. One of the sources, Florian Plettenberg has reported that Bayer Leverkusen is monitoring Antony and could make a move for him as the manager and the player have a good connection.
Erik ten Hag’s arrival at Bayer Leverkusen has already sparked speculation about his transfer plans, with familiar faces from his past clubs reportedly on his radar. One of the notable names linked with a move is Brazilian winger Antony, who recently spent a loan spell at Real Betis from Manchester United.
According to Sky Sports journalist Florian Plettenberg, Bayer Leverkusen are monitoring Antony’s situation closely. The forward enjoyed his best football under Ten Hag during their time together at Ajax, and the Dutch manager is believed to be keen on reuniting with the player in the Bundesliga.
Antony has struggled to find consistency since his big-money move to Manchester United in 2022, and a fresh start in Germany under a trusted manager could help him rediscover his form. With Ten Hag now steering Leverkusen’s project, a move for Antony seems possible—especially if the club can negotiate a favorable deal with United.
