“We cant continue to ignore his lack of skill. He plays like he has never seen a football in his life. He is definitely the worst signing that Manchester United has ever seen. He’s going to remain on the bench till we are to get rid of him” – This is according to Sir Jim Ratcliffe as Manchester United are finally prepared to offload an expensive flop to a Serie A club for less than half of the amount they initially paid for him during the January transfer window.

According to the Daily Mail, Manchester United are willing to let Antony go for just £40m, despite his disappointing spell at the club.

According to the Daily Mail, Manchester United are willing to let Antony go for just £40m, despite his disappointing spell at the club.

The Brazilian winger, who arrived in a high-profile £86m transfer from Ajax in the summer of 2022, has struggled to make an impact and secure a regular spot in the starting lineup.

Despite multiple opportunities under Erik ten Hag, his performances have drawn significant criticism from fans and pundits.

United’s patience with Antony appears to have run out, and they are now open to offloading him.

The club is reportedly keeping an eye on Crystal Palace midfielder Eberechi Eze and may use the funds from Antony’s sale to finance a move for the England international.

The team’s recent signings have struggled to make a mark, which has been reflected in their poor league standing, with Ten Hag’s side currently sitting in 14th place.

In ten matches across all competitions, Manchester United have secured just three victories, struggling with both their defense and attack. Antony has had a limited role this season, falling behind players like Alejandro Garnacho and Amad Diallo in the pecking order for the right-wing spot.

United are looking to offload Antony in January, though it remains uncertain whether it will be a loan or permanent transfer. There is speculation that the club may initially sanction a loan move to boost his market value ahead of a potential permanent departure in the summer of 2025.

The Brazilian’s output of just 12 goals and five assists in 86 appearances is disappointing considering the substantial fee paid for him two years ago, making a sale unsurprising. A return to Ajax could offer Antony an opportunity to revive his career with a second spell in the Eredivisie.
