Ajax are set to demand a huge fee for Brazilian winger Antony as key sales this summer only spell bad news for Tottenham and Manchester United amid all this transfer speculation.
Man United's obsession with trying to sign Frenkie De Jong has meant that their progress in other deals has been thwarted. It was understood that the likes of Jurrien Timber and Lisandro Martinez were two defenders alongside the aforementioned winger that Erik ten Hag wanted but the Eredivisie champions' business elsewhere means that any more exits could be hard to come by. Their sales so far have included the likes of David Neres, Lassina Traore, Noa Lang and others seeking challenges elsewhere and you can now add former West Ham striker Sebastian Haller to this list as Borussia Dortmund close in on a £30million for a striker who set the Champions League alight in 2021/22.
Consequently, a large number of the Dutch title-winning squad have already been disintegrated and Edwin van der Sar amongst others on the board are ready to shut up shop this early on for the summer as their quest to replace some of the big-name losses begins. The only way Ajax will now sell their remaining big stars is if irresistible offers were to come in. How does this now affect Antony?
