Manchester United have reportedly been warned that a deal for Antony could set them back as much as €100million (£84.3m) - but a 'compromise' figure of around €94m (£79.2m) has also been mooted.
The Ajax forward has been chased by Erik ten Hag all summer, with the Dutchman desperate to reunite with the 22-year-old who dazzled for the Dutch champions last term. However, Ajax are reluctant to do business with United after losing the services of Lisandro Martinez to Ten Hag last month.
Despite that stance, Antony is sold on the idea of reuniting with his former boss in the Premier League and is pushing for a move - but United will have to pay a premium price if they are going to break Ajax's resistance before the September 1 deadline.
