Man Utd outcast Antony 'open' to joining Cristiano Ronaldo in Saudi Pro League as 'several clubs' ask transfer questions of Brazilian winger
Brazilian enjoyed productive loan at Betis Red Devils willing to listen to offers Could embrace riches in the Middle East Follow GOAL on WhatsApp! 🟢📱 WHAT HAPPENED? The Brazil international has not travelled to the United States as part of Ruben Amorim's plans for a pre-season tour. He is expected to seal another move away from Old Trafford in the summer transfer window. THE BIGGER PICTURE United allowed Antony to link up with Real Betis in January, with a productive loan spell in Spain delivering nine goals and five assists. His exploits there have attracted admiring glances from around the world. DID YOU KNOW? Betis were keen to get another deal done, but lack the funds required to agree a permanent transfer. United need to make at least £32.58 million ($44m) on a player that they signed for £85m ($114m) in order to avoid making a loss under Profit and Sustainability Rules (PSR). WHAT ANTONY'S AGENT SAID Teams in the Middle East would have no problem meeting that asking price, with Antony's representative Junior Pedroso telling WinWin: "What I can say is that the player is on the market, and there are several clubs that want to know his current status. We listen to the projects and analyse them. But he is open to moving to Saudi Arabia. Anything is possible, we are looking for what is best for him." WHAT NEXT? Antony is under contract with United until 2027, with the option for a 12-month extension beyond that point. He is one of several players that Amorim is looking to move on, with fellow winger Marcus Rashford having already left for Barcelona.
