Manchester United are ready to bring their interest in Ajax winger Antony back to life and make a blockbuster approach for Erik ten Hag’s priority attacking target. The Red Devils are set to launch their final push for Antony in the coming days amid a dramatic end to the summer transfer window.

United had hoped to reunite Ten Hag with the 22-year-old after their successful relationship in the Netherlands earlier this summer. However, Ajax inflated their asking price from £68million to £84m to signify that he wasn’t for sale this summer after losing several other key first-team stars.

But just as United’s pursuit was seemingly dead and buried, there could be hope for Ten Hag and supporters desperate for attacking reinforcements yet. According to Sky Sports, the club are back in for Antony and will present a ‘massive offer’ to Ajax this week.

Whether United’s fresh approach will meet the Dutch Eredivisie champions’ demands remains to be seen, especially considering the lack of time they would have to find a worthy replacement. However, it could persuade them to cash in on their headline star if it’s worth significantly higher than the initial attempt.
