Antony wanted by Ten Hag

Erik ten Hag wants Brazilian to replace Ronaldo

03 July 2022 - 20:45

Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag has earmarked Ajax attacker Antony as a possible replacement for Cristiano Ronaldo.

  • Man Utd expecting €80m boost with double player sale
  • Confirmed Liverpool line-up (4-2-3-1) vs Galatasaray, Salah starts


  • Ronaldo is reportedly keen to leave United this summer in order to play for another club in the Champions League.

    Amidst this, Ten Hag is said to be eyeing a replacement, and will urge United to sign Antony, according to The Mirror.

    The report adds that United may need to pay a fee of around £70-80m to prise away the Brazil international from Ajax.

    Antony would be handy signing in case of Ronaldo\'s exit, but he is not a centre-forward. He is a right-winger by trade.

    He has operated in the position for most of his playing career, and is unlikely to provide a solution for United up front next term.

    If Antony were to join the club, Ten Hag may have plans of playing either Anthony Martial or Marcus Rashford as a striker.

    The duo may have the chance to revive their careers.
