‘Decision made’: Man United to ‘cut losses’ in the Antony case, making fund for summer transfer

Entertainment — 02/27/2024

Manchester United were determined to ‘cut losses’ large because of Antony, selling the Brazilian striker this summer following a dismal season with Erik ten Hag and his side.

United’s patience with Antony appears to have run out, and they are set to listen to bids for the Brazilian this summer.

The Manchester United winger joined the club from Ajax in the summer of 2022 for £86 million ($109 million), amid considerable hoopla. However, current coach Erik ten Hag has not been able to fully exploit his skills this season. Antony has become one of Premier League history’s worst acquisitions, with no goals or assists in 20 league games.

Indeed, the Daily Mail believes that Manchester United may finally be willing to confess their mistakes and let Antony leave in the summer transfer window of 2024. That decision is anticipated to be made as part of the club’s summer of change, as minority stakeholder Sir Jim Ratcliffe takes over football operations and strengthens the approach to the upcoming transfer window.

The British billionaire is likely to analyze the effectiveness of Manchester United’s roster, which was recently reported to be the most expensive in football history, with Antony among those who will face a load reduction plan.

According to the Daily Mail, the club is willing to lose more than half of the £86 million transfer fee paid to sell the 2000-born striker.

Antony’s struggles at Manchester United have been clear in recent weeks. Even Ten Hag, who has been one of Antony’s defenders since the likes of Jadon Sancho and Facundo Pellistri did not have the same “privileges”.

The Brazilian has started only one of United’s last eight games, with youngsters Omari Forson and Amad Diallo coming on as substitutes. Ten Hag discussed Antony’s troubles, including allegations of emotional abuse, which are to blame for his poor form this season.

However, Antony’s terrible record of 9 goals in 70 outings across all competitions at Manchester United until now makes matters worse. Antony was previously thought to be heading to Saudi Arabia.
