Real Betis boss Manuel Pellegrini has told Manchester United to 'make a decision' on Antony with the club still hopeful of signing the star this summer.
Antony is one of five United players consigned to the 'bomb squad' by Ruben Amorim and wants to pursue a move away from Old Trafford.
The Brazilian winger enjoyed a successful loan spell with Real Betis after leaving United in January, scoring nine goals and providing five assists in 26 appearances as he helped the Spanish side reach the Conference League final.
And Betis remain keen on securing a permanent deal for the player, who cost United £85.
