Manchester United outcast Antony has reportedly rejected the chance to reunite with Cristiano Ronaldo after snubbing an Al-Nassr move.
Manchester United fans dreaming of a marquee striker signing this summer can breathe a little easier. Contrary to popular belief, funding a blockbuster deal doesn't necessarily hinge on offloading players deemed surplus to requirements - the so-called 'bomb squad'.
A clever combination of factors is opening up financial possibilities for Erik ten Hag. Primarily, the club's recent financial performance has been stronger than anticipated, boosting available funds. Furthermore, a shift in Financial Fair Play (FFP) regulations allows for greater amortization of player contracts, meaning United can spread the cost of a new signing over a longer period.
This doesn't mean spending will be unlimited, but it significantly eases the pressure to generate revenue through sales. While departures would still be welcomed to streamline the squad, they are no longer a *requirement* to bring in a top-tier goalscorer. Expect United to explore options like Victor Osimhen and Harry Kane with renewed confidence, focusing on structuring a deal that fits within their evolving financial landscape. This is a game-changer for Ten Hag's rebuild!
A dramatic reshuffling is underway at Manchester United as Alejandro Garnacho, Antony, Jadon Sancho and Tyrell Malacia will reportedly remain excluded from first-team operations. Although they will continue to train at the Carrington facility, they will have to do so under separate arrangements.
Manchester United outcast Jadon Sancho has been told he has the potential to be "one of the greatest" if he can fix his mentality and attitude.
Manchester United outcast Antony has rejected transfer offers from Botafogo and his boyhood club, Sao Paulo. The winger has been linked with a move away from Old Trafford this summer after falling out of favour with Ruben Amorim. Antony spent the second half of the 2024-25 campaign on loan at Real Betis, where he impressed by scoring nine goals.
Cristiano Ronaldo's Al-Nassr side have reportedly made an offer for Manchester United's Brazilian winger Antony.
Manchester United outcast Antony is "open" to the idea of joining Cristiano Ronaldo in the Saudi Pro League, with "several clubs" showing interest.
The reasons for £71 million ($95m) signing Bryan Mbeumo sitting out Manchester United's friendly date with West Ham have been explained.
Ruben Amorim has opened the door for banished trio Antony, Jadon Sancho, and Alejandro Garnacho to return if Manchester United can't sell them.
