Man Utd's 'charm offensive' for Marcus Rashford replacement with Erik ten Hag blessing

Manchester United could launch a “charm offensive” to sign Ajax forward Antony, if Marcus Rashford departs Old Trafford at the end of the season.

The Brazilian attacking sensation has enjoyed a fantastic start to life at the Amsterdam giants since his £14million move from Sao Paulo in the summer of 2020. He has contributed eight goals and four assists in 23 Eredivise appearances, as well as two goals and four assists in seven Champions League appearances.

United managerial target Erik Ten Hag is more than familiar with the 22-year-old’s impressive performances, having overseen his promising two seasons in European football; however, United would likely face competition from the likes of Liverpool and Barcelona. And if Rashford departs the Red Devils at the end of the campaign, United could fill the void by making a bold move for the Brazilian international.
