Manchester United's deal that will secure the signing of Ajax attacking star Antony caused internal conflict within the Dutch club.
The Premier League outfit have agreed an £84million deal to bring the 22-year-old to Old Trafford. United may have been forced to pay a premium to secure the transfer but it represents a triumph for Erik ten Hag, who had prioritised Antony’s arrival all summer.
The talented forward has been pushing for the move and desperately wants to leave Amsterdam after two impressive campaigns. Mirror Football exclusively reported that the Brazil international had gone on strike at the club in order to force through a move.
