Manchester United could return with a new €100 million offer for Antony after seeing their €80 million bid rejected recently.
According to Foot Mercato, Manchester United intend to return with an improved offer for Antony. The new bid may be around €100 million, including add-ons, which could convince Ajax to accept the offer for the 22-year-old Brazilian attacker.
After multiple setbacks during the last three months pursuing their preferred targets, Manchester United seem ready to spend big before the window shuts. Having secured the sensational signing of Casemiro from Real Madrid, Manchester United boss, Erik ten Hag wants the club to go all out and bring his former protege Antony. The Brazilian winger was excellent under the former Ajax tactician.
Manchester United saw an €80 million bid rejected by Ajax. Speculation suggested the Eredivisie side were keen on retaining the 22-year-old winger, considering they have already made significant sales in the summer.
Alternatively, it was also reported that the Dutch champions wanted Manchester United to pay their €100 million asking price and refused to budge on their demands. The Red Devils were thought to be looking at alternatives, with the first name being that of PSV star Cody Gakpo.
However, the recent report insists Manchester United are set to return with an improved offer worth €100 million, hoping that Ajax would agree to the new proposal. The new bid could include add-ons that match Ajax’s asking price for Antony.
If the report is accurate, then it’s evident Ten Hag rates the player highly and believes he could be an improvement on their current options. The Red Devils are yet to win a single game this season and take on Liverpool on Monday night.
Signing a new winger is considered essential by those in charge of the club. They have been lacking an attacking threat from wide areas as Jadon Sancho and Marcus Rashford continue to struggle for form.
€100 million for a young player, who has made a name in the Dutch league, may seem like a gamble to many. Manchester United have already faced criticism for splashing the cash to sign Lisandro Martinez, who also arrived from Ajax in the summer in a big-money deal. With not much time left for the transfer window to close, they will need to act swiftly if they are indeed serious about signing Antony.
