After a difficult season at Old Trafford, reinforcements are needed, and finding players to suit Ten Hag’s style will be pivotal to their success. One man they are reportedly interested in is Antony, who is keen to link up with his former manager.

According to Raul Moura and Thiago Fernandes the player’s entourage has flown over to Europe to negotiate personal terms with United.

The report states:  “The purpose of the trip is to accelerate, and perhaps close, the possible deal between the player and the Manchester club.”

The Brazilian winger is expected to cost €60 million, with United working to reach an agreement with Ajax and the player.

Antony played under Ten Hag at Ajax, spending two years with the Dutchman, and the fact he is willing to pack his bags and move to England at 22 speaks volumes.

The Brazilian understands Ten Hag’s demands and has become accustomed to his style of play, so a transition to the Premier League would be a lot easier than if he joined another club in England.

With Liverpool looking favourites for the signing of Darwin Nunez, United could look to revamp their transfer strategy and sign Antony.

The Red Devils lack and out and out winger who can operate on the right flank. With the signing of Antony, United would get a balanced frontline, with creativity on either flank
