Antony joined Manchester United from Ajax in the summer of 2022 for a fee of around £86m, becoming the second most expensive signing in the club's history.

However, since arriving at Old Trafford, the 24-year-old has struggled to maintain consistent form, with just five goals in 56 Premier League games. He has been used as a reserve option and has only made two Premier League appearances this season, reflecting manager Erik ten Hag's preference for Alejandro Garnacho, Marcus Rashford and Amad.

In the face of these difficulties, it is reported that two English clubs, Newcastle and Crystal Palace, are interested in Antony and may make a loan bid in the January 2025 transfer window. However, the former Ajax star seems to want to leave the Premier League in search of more playing opportunities. In August, there were rumours of a move to Real Betis, but the deal fell through. Fenerbahce, under the guidance of coach Jose Mourinho, also showed interest but negotiations went nowhere.

Antony's agent, Junior Pedroso, has insisted that his player remains committed to staying and fighting for a place in Ten Hag's squad. He said: "Antony wants to stay, he is focused on Man United." However, a lack of regular playing time could change Antony's mind.

With limited transfer options and mounting pressure, Antony will need to carefully consider his options in the coming months, a decision that could have a major impact on his career, especially as the season progresses.
