Manchester United are poised to sign Ajax attacking star Antony while PSV Eindhoven expect them to return with a move for Cody Gakpo before transfer deadline day.
United are set to agree a €100million (£84million) deal to land Antony, 22, who has been top of Erik ten Hag' s shopping list all summer. The Brazilian has been pushing for the move and desperately wants to leave Amsterdam after two impressive campaigns. Mirror Football exclusively reported that the Brazil international is now on strike at his current club.
On Friday, the player in question spoke about Ajax's treatment of his situation in a bombshell interview. "Since February of this year, my agents came to Amsterdam to inform Ajax of my desire to leave the club to face new challenge and that some interested clubs would arrive and with them, certainly a great offer," Antony explained to transfer reporter Fabrizio Romano.
