Arsenal make shock approach to sign Man Utd winger Antony

Arsenal have made a shock enquiry to sign Manchester United winger Antony at the end of the season, as per UOL in Brazil.

The Gunners are expected to strengthen their frontline ahead of next season and they are aiming to land a versatile forward.

The club have been linked with several names including Nico Williams but UOL claim that Antony is also on their radar.

The Brazilian outlet mention that the Gunners have been asking about the player alongside Atletico Madrid in recent weeks.

Antony left United on loan for Real Betis in January and he has been brilliant for them with six goals and four assists thus far.

He is expected to leave United in the summer and reports claim that he could be signed for between €30-40 million.

Arsenal have the financial capacity to match the figure, but the big question is whether there is any truth to the speculation.

If there is, Antony will have to accept a back-up role as he is unlikely to displace Bukayo Saka from the right wing spot.
