Real Betis are reportedly actively looking to sign Manchester United defender, Tyrell Malacia on loan after pulling off a similar deal for Antony few days ago.
After slipping in the hierarchy at Old Trafford under manager Ruben Amorim, Antony finalized a loan move to the Spanish team through the end of the current campaign.
According to The Daily Mail as reported by The Metro, Betis are also interested in a loan agreement for Malacia so Antony might soon be joined by a familiar face in the left-back.
Due to a severe knee injury, the Dutch defender missed the entire 2023–2024 season after arriving from Feyenoord in 2022.

Malacia has only made seven appearances this season across all competitions and seems to be surplus to requirements at Old Trafford, despite Luke Shaw’s injury.
His odds of playing are only going to get worse as Manchester United looks to finalize a deal for Patrick Dorgu, a left-back from Lecce, which is anticipated to happen soon.
Although the Mail claims that other clubs are also interested in signing the 25-year-old, Betis, led by former Manchester City manager Manuel Pellegrini, are aiming to capitalize on the situation and sign him till the end of the season.
With players like Hector Bellerin, Pablo Fornals, Adrian, and Giovani Lo Celso on their roster, the tenth-place team in La Liga also have some more names that Premier League followers are familiar with.
