Tottenham given Antony transfer warning amid Man United battle for Ajax star

Tottenham Hotspur have been reminded of an advantage that Manchester United hold in the race to sign Ajax winger Antony. The 22-year-old has been heavily linked with a move to North London this summer, though the appointment of Erik ten Hag at Old Trafford could pose an issue for Antonio Conte.

Antony, whose contract at The Johan Cruyff Arena expires in 2025, featured 23 times in the Eredivisie this season, directly contributing towards 12 goals from the wing. His impressive displays steered the Dutch giants to the club's fourth successive league title, courting the interest of several top-flight sides in the meantime - one of whom are Spurs.

According to Miguel Delaney, the Lilywhites are ready to challenge United for the Brazil international. The report adds that the North London outfit would be willing to offer Steven Bergwijn in any potential deal, which could give them the edge over the Red Devils.
