Manchester United reportedly set Anthony price tag

Manchester United have reportedly set their asking price for on-loan winger Antony as the club tries to offload 10 squad players this summer.

Anthony has been a revelation since his winter loan move to Spanish giants Real Betis, as sources say, the Spanish side is covering 84% of his salary for the rest of the season.

According to the I paper, United are ‘confident’ they can sell Antony for £40m this summer after impressing on loan at Real Betis.

The Brazilian has scored four goals and provided four assists in 12 appearances, leading to Atletico Madrid and Serie A teams registering an interest in him.

Antony will go down as one of United’s worst-ever signings but if they can recoup nearly half of the £82m they dished out for him in 2022, that may be an important deal for the club.

Coincidentally, the report adds he could be one of 10 players the Red Devils try to shift on at the end of the season to raise the funds head coach Ruben Amorim needs to overhaul his squad.

The report adds that United are going to need to cough up more than £100m in outgoings to give Amorim the needed personnel to challenge for anything next season.
