Newly appointed Manchester united head coach Ruben Amorim has identified Antony and out of contract Christian Eriksen as possible players to offload in the January transfer window so as to boost his budget of landing new signings at Old Trafford according to sources near the club.
Antony has been unable to live his hype after a whooping £86 million switch from Ajax in September 2022 and is deemed surplus after falling behind the likes of Garnacho and Amad Diallo in the attacking department. His counterpart Eriksen has been told he is out of Amorim future plans.
Despite the Red Devils splashing cash in the summer, with Lenny Yoro grabbing the spotlight as the expensive signing costing £58.9 million from Lille, the former Sporting Lisbon tactician feels the need to adjust the squad he inherited from his predecessor so as to suit his system of play.
Keeping in mind the English Premier League financial fair play rule, the Red Devils are also keen to offload high earners in the club like Casemiro, Harry Maguire, Johnny Evans and Victor Lindelof so as to generate more funds to bring in new signings suitable for Ruben Amorim preferred 3-4-2-1 system.
