Man Utd is gearing up for a bustling summer transfer window, with reports from Rudy Galetti indicating their intention to offload Antony to make room for the arrival of Michael Olise from Crystal Palace.
Under the new leadership of Sir Jim Ratcliffe and Dave Brailsford, the club is determined to bolster their squad, addressing the inconsistency that has plagued them in recent seasons and bolstering their prospects of competing at the top of the table.
One player likely to depart to accommodate new signings is 24-year-old Antony.
The Brazilian international has endured a lacklustre season, managing just one assist in 25 league appearances. Despite contributing two goals and an assist in the FA Cup, his overall output has fallen short of expectations.
Meanwhile, Olise, aged 22, has long been on United’s radar and remains a top priority for the club.
It’s understood that the player himself favours a move to Old Trafford over potential switches to Liverpool or Chelsea, both of whom are also interested.
With a £60 million release clause that could be activated this summer, United view the Palace winger as the ideal candidate to inject greater consistency into their wide play.
