Man Utd transfer news: Antony sale to fund Michael Olise

Antony, Man Utd, 2023/24

Manchester United are reportedly looking to sell Antony in the summer transfer window.

According to journalist Rudy Galetti, the Red Devils are ‘waiting’ for offers for the Brazilian.

However, he goes on to say that there have been no ‘concrete approaches’ at this stage.

Antony has struggled in his time at Old Trafford, scoring just 11 times in 80 appearances in all competitions.

Indeed, he has registered just one goal and one assist in 27 Premier League games in the 2023-24 season.

Not only has he come under huge criticism for his poor performances, but he has brought his manager, Erik ten Hag, into disrepute for signing him.

It comes as no surprise that there isn’t a queue of suitors for the 24-year-old winger.

Olise to Man Utd?

Crystal Palace winger Michael Olise is one of United’s top targets, Fabrizio Romano has confirmed.

While FootballTransfers exclusively revealed that Palace are braced for the former France U21 international to leave this summer.

Romano now says that Man Utd are positioning themselves to make a spectacular move for the exciting winger who has seven goals and four assists in 16 Premier League matches this season.

Indeed, the transfer news expert hints that Erik ten Hag’s side are now ahead of Chelsea in the pursuit of the 22-year-old, whose game time this season has been limited by persistent hamstring injuries.

“He was close to a Chelsea move to August. Chelsea had him as a priority target. Then Crystal Palace were able to do a fantastic job to keep the player at the club, extend his contract and increase the size of his release clause, which is around £60 million,” he explained on his YouTube channel.

“Manchester United are very well informed on the situation. They have always been very well informed about the situation. They know about the release clause, they know about the wages, the commission. He is one of the players they have on their shortlist.”
