'Many clubs have approached' - Man Utd outcast edges closer to exit?

The agent of Manchester United attacker Antony has confirmed that there is "concrete interest" in the Brazilian ahead of the January transfer window.

One of the Red Devils' most notable transfer flops of the post-Sir Alex Ferguson era, Antony has had a direct hand in just 17 goals from 92 appearances in a Man United jersey since his £85m arrival from Ajax in 2022.

Antony has only scored 12 goals of his own while supplying five assists in that time, although the majority of his Premier League appearances in recent months have come from the bench.

From a mere 10 matches played in the 2024-25 campaign, the 24-year-old has been a substitute in seven of them, only starting in EFL Cup matches against Barnsley and Tottenham Hotspur and a Europa League contest with Bodo/Glimt.

Antony did manage 90 minutes against the Tykes, where he also scored his only goal of the season to date, but he was withdrawn either on or before the hour mark in the other two starts.

Antony approached by "many" clubs despite Man Utd stance

'Many clubs have approached' - Man Utd outcast edges closer to exit?

An exit in 2025 appears inevitable, but while Antony's agent Junior Pedroso confirmed to GIVEMESPORT that several clubs have expressed an interest, Man United have not told the player or his representative that they want to offload him.

"Yes, many clubs have approached us for Antony's move in January," Pedroso said. "These clubs wanted to understand the situation for Antony, so I can confirm that there's concrete interest.

"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.

"I can say that Antony's future is very much tied to Manchester United's interests. 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."

Antony has two and a half years left to run on his contract with the Red Devils, who can also trigger a 12-month extension, and manager Amorim recently gave a public vote of confidence to the former Sao Paulo attacker.

What about Marcus Rashford's future?

Antony is not the only Man United attacker whose career at Old Trafford has stalled, as Marcus Rashford again missed out on selection for Thursday's Premier League clash with Wolverhampton Wanderers.

The England international has not been seen in a Red Devils shirt since the 2-1 win over Viktoria Plzen on December 12, being snubbed for matches against Wolves, Tottenham Hotspur, Bournemouth and Manchester City since.

After Rashford publicly declared his intention to seek out a new challenge elsewhere, a January departure - either permanent or on loan - is likely, and a separate report has claimed that Man United have now set their asking price.

Jose Mourinho would reportedly be open to reuniting with Rashford at Fenerbahce, but Paris Saint-Germain - who have long been credited with an interest - will supposedly not be making a move.

Arsenal and Chelsea have also been linked with a loan move, but Man United apparently have reservations about letting Rashford join a direct Premier League rival. body check tags ::
