Manchester United set to offload Antony this Summer
Manchester United is gearing up for a significant reshuffle this summer, with Brazilian winger Antony on the list of potential departures.
According to sources close to the club, United is open to both permanent and loan offers for the 24-year-old, provided the bidding club covers his £100,000-a-week wages if it’s a loan deal.
Antony joined Manchester United from Ajax in 2022 for a hefty £86 million fee, arriving with high expectations. Despite a promising start, scoring 35 minutes into his debut against Arsenal, the winger has struggled to make a lasting impact.
Last season, he managed just one goal in 29 Premier League appearances, a lackluster return that has led to mounting frustration among fans and management alike.
Manager Erik ten Hag, looking to reinvigorate the squad, is keen on offloading Antony to free up funds and space for new talent.
The recent acquisition of 18-year-old French center-back Leny Yoro for £59 million underscores United’s commitment to building a robust and dynamic team.
Yoro’s signing, seen as a coup after beating out Real Madrid, highlights the club’s strategic focus on long-term potential.
With the recent INEOS takeover injecting new energy into the club, United is determined to bounce back from a disappointing season that saw them finish eighth in the Premier League.
The club’s strategy now hinges on balancing the books while pursuing fresh talent to reignite their competitive edge.
As the transfer window progresses, Antony’s future hangs in the balance. Whether he departs on a permanent deal or a loan, one thing is clear: Manchester United is ready for a new chapter, and Antony is not in their plans
