As already stated anchor tags are not passed to the web server so the F5 will not see them, the solution proposed is to use a STREAM profile and update the link in the HTML instead of doing a redirect.

Not tested this iRule but generally this should look for the text 

!/fanta-manager
and replace it with 
https://www2.test.com/scommesse
but only if the request is to https://www.test.com/promotion.jsp

e.g. the link in the HTML might be 

when HTTP_REQUEST {
  set streamFlg false
  STREAM::disable
  
  if { ([string tolower [HTTP::host]] eq "www.test.com") and ([string tolower [HTTP::uri]] eq "/promotion.jsp")} {
    set streamFlg true
  } 
}

when HTTP_RESPONSE {
  if {$streamFlg} {
    STREAM::expression {@!/fanta-manager@https://www2.test.com/scommesse@}
    STREAM::enabled
  }
}
