United hopes to sell many big-name stars to raise capital to reinvest Ruben Amorim to improve the team.
Players who are expected to be on loan, such as Anthony, Marcus Rashford and Tyrel Maracia, will be the first to leave.
The Brazilian was on the scoring table again on Sunday and now has seven goals and four assists.
His stock has been at an all-time high, which is why Ineos is looking to uninstall him for as much as €40 million with the emergence of Arsenal and Shock Sundors.
Betis is also eager to extend his amulet for longer, even proposing another loan agreement for Manchester United unlikely to entertain. Spain has nothing to do.
Spanish media (via F365) now reports that Atletico Madrid is ready to compete in the former Ajax Ace and has made an opening offer of 40 million euros for the 25-year-old.
“The 40 million euro offer for red and white people proposed in recent hours has been welcomed by Manchester United, who are willing to break up with the players to allow them to recover some of their initial investment from Ajax signing him.
“Finally, the deal is very close to completion and negotiations are expected to develop rapidly in the next few weeks.”
Their manager with Diego Simeone was reportedly "convinced Antony" could provide his team with the speed and directness needed to make competitive leaps in Laliga and the Champions League, and the competitive bid was reportedly after they "monitored the progress of Brazilian players for weeks".
United spent up to €95 million on signing Ajax in 2022 due to the persistence of former manager Erik Ten Hag, and it is safe to say the move has not paid off.
The Brazil international scored 12 goals and five assists in two and a half seasons in England, and freedom and pressure made him stand out in Betis.
Anthony blamed his outstanding performance off the field, but the truth is that he wasn't outstanding enough to reach the pace and physical condition of the Premier League.
I hope his future can be decided as soon as possible and can reinvest wisely this time. Perhaps Luis Campos can join Manchester United as new sporting director through the Portuguese in negotiations.
