Manchester United loanee Antony was in tears after his Real Betis side fell 4-1 to Chelsea in the UEFA Conference League final on Wednesday night but gave a hint on his future at Old Trafford.

Moroccan winger, Abde Ezzalzouli put Betis ahead in the ninth minute but Chelsea overpowered the Spanish side courtesy of four goals from Enzo Fernandez, Nicolas Jackson, Jadon Sancho and Moises Caicedo in the last 25 minutes of the encounter.

The Brazilian has been in superb form since joining the Spanish side on loan in January, scoring nine goals and providing five assists, offering a glimpse of the form that saw Manchester United splash £86 million to prise him from Ajax.

However, he struggled to make an impact in the final.

An emotional Antony gave an update on his United future after the final whistle on Wednesday night.

He told CBS Sports, “I don’t what will happen in the future, only God knows.

“My work is playing and I’m doing that well. I have a lot of affection for Betis, for everyone but I have a contract with Man United and I don’t know what’s going to happen.

“Now I will go to the national team and then on holiday then we will see what happens in the future.

“I’m very happy here, everyone knows that but I have a contract.”
