Man Utd take huge step towards Antony transfer as details of final fee emerge

Manchester United are finally close to agreeing a mega-money deal with Ajax to sign Antony.

The 22-year-old winger is top of Erik ten Hag' s shopping list with five days of the summer transfer window remaining, and the Red Devils have taken a significant step towards signing him. According to multiple reports, United are now on the verge of striking a full agreement with Ajax, who've maintained that they wouldn't sell Antony for less than €100million (£84m).

In somewhat relieving news, the eye-watering fee includes add-ons, as Ten Hag's pleas to bolster his squad before Thursday's 11pm deadline appear to have been answered. Antony 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.
