Manchester United transfer target Antony agrees with Matthijs de Ligt about Erik ten Hag

Ajax winger Antony has previously waxed lyrical about Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag's ability to improve every player that he works with, amid reports suggesting the Brazilian is closing in on a move to Old Trafford.

Antony, 22, has been heavily linked with a move to United over the last few months, long before Ten Hag, who United have taken from Ajax, was officially appointed as the club's new manager. United are keen to strengthen their right-wing options this summer and Antony has been identified as a player of interest.

According to reports overseas, United are close to 'reaching an agreement' with Ajax to sign the former Sao Paulo ace. It has been widely reported that his representatives have been in Europe this week to try and reach an agreement with the Old Trafford outfit.
