Man Utd winger Antony attracting interest as agent outlines January plans
Manchester United winger Antony's agent has confirmed the Brazilian has received multiple offers ahead of the January transfer window, amid ongoing speculation about his future at Old Trafford.
WHAT HAPPENED?
Arriving at Manchester United with a big reputation under then-manager Erik ten Hag, Antony has struggled to justify his £85 million price tag. Over two and a half seasons, the 24-year-old has scored just five Premier League goals, leaving fans and critics questioning his impact.
Now under new manager Ruben Amorim, Antony’s fortunes haven’t improved. Game time has been sparse, with his second start this season coming in a 3-0 Carabao Cup loss to Tottenham, where he was substituted after 55 minutes following another underwhelming display. Amorim is reportedly planning a squad overhaul, and Antony has been linked with a potential exit, with several clubs closely monitoring his situation.
WHAT ANTONY'S AGENT SAID
Junior Pedroso, Antony’s agent, confirmed there is significant interest in the winger ahead of the January window. Speaking to GiveMeSport, Pedroso revealed:
“Many clubs have approached us for Antony’s move in January. These clubs wanted to understand the situation for Antony, so I can confirm that there’s concrete interest.”
Pedroso also clarified that United have not indicated a desire to part ways with Antony, either on a permanent or temporary basis.
“To be fair, Manchester United have never expressed any interest to sell or loan out Antony to us. We never received this sort of communication so far. Man United management never told us that they want Antony to leave, despite the reports we see around about our client.”
WHAT’S NEXT FOR ANTONY?
Antony’s agent hinted at a possible loan move if it benefits all parties:
“If the club thinks it would be a good idea to loan Antony out in January so he can get more minutes and regain his trust, we will work together on that option. Otherwise, Antony is working hard to regain his place and show his best skills under the new coach Ruben Amorim.”
THE BIGGER PICTURE
With United preparing for a crucial Premier League clash against Wolves on Boxing Day, Antony’s future remains uncertain. Whether he can reignite his United career or starts anew elsewhere, the coming weeks could define the next phase of his journey.
As the January window approaches, all eyes will be on how both Antony and Manchester United navigate this pivotal moment.
