Brazilian star Antony has gone on strike at Ajax to force through his move to Manchester United.
The 22-year-old winger is refusing to play for the Dutch champions in their Eredivisie clash at Utrecht on Sunday. It comes after Antony pulled out of the last Ajax match, a 1-0 win at Sparta Rotterdam, with his future in the balance.
Ajax are playing hardball over allowing him to reunite with Erik ten Hag at Old Trafford and the South American star has retaliated by telling the Amsterdam club he won’t play for them after blocking his dream move. Ajax are holding out for £84.8million after refusing United’s latest offer of £74.6 million on Friday with United said to be ready to make one last deal-breaking bid.
