Man Utd make their mind up on Antony transfer as Ruben Amorim makes his mark

Due to the fact that he was acquired by Manchester United for a significant transfer fee in the early stages of Erik ten Hag’s tenure, the winger Antony has not been able to live up to the expectations that were placed on him.

At the same time as Manchester United is getting set to begin a new era under Ruben Amorim, the club is getting ready to cut their losses on Antony sometime in January.

When the Brazilian international was brought to Old Trafford in 2022, the Red Devils spent more than 81.3 million pounds to get his services. However, Antony, who is 24 years old, has never appeared to be capable of re-creating the scintillating form that proved to be so successful for Erik ten Hag and Ajax in the Eredivisie.

Ten Hag was fired by United a month ago, and the Daily Star has now claimed that Antony is going to follow him out the door. This is assuming that the club is able to find a buyer for the winger during the winter transfer window.

According to reports, United is open to considering any offers that may be made for Antony. It would appear that this also includes loan ideas in the event that they are unable to permanently unload the star player who earns £200,000 per week.

The article states that Ten Hag questioned Antony’s attitude at training before to his departure, and insiders close to the club have also reported that the player has been labelled a “disruptive influence in and around the squad.” However, the story does not specify which of these two statements is true.

Sir Jim Ratcliffe, who is a co-owner of Manchester United, is “keen” on removing Antony off the pay bill in light of the poor influence he has had since joining the club for a significant amount of money previous to his own arrival at Old Trafford.

And the supreme leader of Ineos is prepared to give his approval for a transfer to Sporting Lisbon’s prodigy Geovany Quenda in the summer of next year to take Antony’s position.

After making his debut with Sporting under Amorim’s tutelage, Quenda, who is just 17 years old, is considered to be one of the most promising prospects in Europe. In addition, his old manager is enthusiastic about the prospect of coming back again with the brilliant youngster in the Premier League.

Quenda has just recruited Jorge Mendes, Cristiano Ronaldo’s agent, to represent him moving forward in anticipation of a potentially blockbuster move that might take place in the following year.

Amorim will take command of his game for the first time since joining United this coming Sunday, when he leads his new squad to Portman Road, where they will compete against Ipswich Town, who are newcomers to English Premier League football.

On the other hand, he can be without a number of players who are considered to be stars of the first team. Lisandro Martinez is the most recent player to sustain an injury while serving in an international capacity. Due to a back injury, the defender was forced to leave training camp early and return home. It is currently unknown whether or not he will play for United this coming weekend.
