Liverpool to make shock move for Antony?

Liverpool have been linked with a surprise approach for Manchester United target Antony this summer.

The Brazil international had a good 2021/22 season for Ajax, registering 12 goals and 10 assists in all competitions.

Since the end of the campaign, he has been linked with a possible move to United to reunite with his former Ajax head coach.

Erik ten Hag left the Amsterdam outfit for United this summer, and it is known that he is eyeing players from his former club.

Lisandro Martinez is expected to join in the next 24 hours, and Ten Hag has also urged United to make a move for Antony.

The £68m price tag is a stumbling block at the moment, but United could face also competition from Jurgen Klopp's side.

The Merseyside giants recently spent £64m up front to land Darwin Nunez, but they have been fancied to sign another attacker.

Antony is a player that has caught the eye of Klopp. It remains to be seen whether the Reds are willing to meet the valuation.
