To secure the signing of the Brazilian super star Manchester United increased their bid for Antony

As per the directives of the new manager Erik ten Hag, Manchester United has so far added three players to their roster. The Dutch manager is aware that there are still significant deficiencies in the English giants’ squad, particularly in midfield and up front.

The Dutchman has placed a high priority on bringing in Frenkie de Jong from Barcelona and Antony from Ajax. Ten Hag is very familiar with them from his time as Ajax’s manager.

Ronaldo has stated again that he wants to leave United to play in the Champions League, thus the team needs to bolster their offense. Ten Hag favors a flowing formation, and while Antony wouldn’t strictly be a direct replacement, the Brazilian’s presence would help with that.

According to earlier reports, United was prepared to make an offer of roughly €70 million, but the Dutch superpower had raised their demand from €80 million to €100 million.

Since they have already sold players like Lisandro Martnez, Sébastien Haller, Ryan Gravenberch, Nicolás Tagliafico, and Dominik Kotarski, the Eredivisie champions can afford to reject such an offer.

United’s initial approach of €60 million has already been increased, according to Goal, which has now been confirmed. Ajax are now standing by their fee, though..

According to reports, Antony is not very pleased with Ajax’s assessment of the youngster and believes that this could hurt his prospects of joining the Premier League this year.

Additionally, the publication’s Brazil version noted that given the Amsterdam club’s stance, the standoff might not be resolved until the end of the current transfer window. The Brazilian winger’s deal with Ajax expires in 2025.

As the club that trained the Brazil international, Sao Paulo, which is where this update comes from, is entitled to collect 20% of the sale price as well as an additional 2.7%.

Alfred Schreuder, the manager of Ajax, has so far made conflicting comments on the right-winger. Even though the new coach could not guarantee that he would stay with the champs, he would still prefer to prevent any future exits.

.would prefer to stop any more departures.

The fact that Ajax has already signed Francisco Conceicao, who is seen as Antony’s replacement, demonstrates that they are preparing for life without him.

Ten Hag is aware that the team lacks depth in several areas, and with the World Cup and the numerous games United has this season, including Thursday night Europa League games, it is imperative to add offensive reinforcements, and Antony is the ideal candidate.
