Manchester United are ready to entertain offers for Brazilian winger Antony this summer, according to the Daily Mail.
Erik ten Hag’s side signed the 24-year-old from Ajax in 2022 for a fee of around £86 million. However, the high-profile signing has failed to live up to the expectations at Old Trafford.
He started in a bright manner by scoring three goals in his first three games at the club. Since then he has found the back of the net just once in over 42 league appearances.
With a total tally of nine goals and four assists in over 70 appearances, it is a very mediocre return on the heavy investment made by the club.

Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s management is now considering to sell the player permanently and cut off some much needed deadwood in the squad.
However, the only problem would be that they need to release him for half the price they paid while signing him from Ajax.
Man United and Antony’s time together is slowly coming to an end
There was a lot of hype around Antony’s move to Old Trafford last summer. But fast forward eight months, and the fans would be really disappointed by the outcome.
Such has been the South American winger’s downfall that even Ten Hag finally realised that he needs to play Alejandro Garnacho more in the left-wing position.
Omori Forson was utilised against Fulham and there are chances that Amad Diallo could get an opening soon. All this is happening while Antony is still warming the bench.

The manager has picked his preferred players and there is no place to hide for the former Ajax star. Finding a suitable club will help him to gain momentum in his career.
United would need to settle with whatever sum they receive for the young attacker this summer.
