“I want to Leave” Erig Ten Hag don’t take me as one of his players anyone, he keeps benching me for an Academy player- £70m million Manchester United Star player WANTS TO terminate his contract with Man United
The latest news from Manchester United’s camp revolves around their eagerness to offload winger Antony during the upcoming summer transfer window. Despite this eagerness, there hasn’t been any concrete interest in the player as of yet, highlighting the challenges United may face in executing this transjfer.Antony arrived at Old Trafford in 2022 amid high expectations, with the club splashing a significant £86 million for the Brazilian winger, marking him as their second-most expensive signing ever. His initial impact seemed promising, with three Premier League goals in his first three appearances, but he struggled to maintain consistency throughout his first season.While there were bright moments, such as his impressive assist against Chelsea and a goal in the FA Cup clash against Liverpool, Antony’s overall performance dipped in his second season. With just two goals and two assists in 33 games across all competitions this season, and a Premier League goal drought stretching almost a year, questions have been raised about his contribution to the team.Controversy also surrounded Antony when reports emerged of him storming out of training upon learning he wouldn’t start a match against Bournemouth. However, the club has denied these rumors, adding another layer of complexity to Antony’s situation.
Manchester United’s reported interest in Crystal Palace’s Michael Olise as a replacement for Antony signals their intent to rejuvenate the squad. Italian journalist Rudy Galetti has confirmed United’s desire to part ways with Antony during the summer transfer window, citing financial considerations and squad restructuring as key factors.While Antony has previously been linked with clubs like Barcelona, doubts arise regarding the feasibility of such a move given Barcelona’s financial constraints and the player’s current form. United faces the challenge of not being able to recoup a significant portion of the £86 million they spent on Antony, with estimates suggesting they might only recover around 25% of the initial investment.
The financial aspect extends to Antony’s wages, reportedly close to £200,000 per week, with three years remaining on his contract. This situation necessitates a significant compromise on wages from Antony’s side if United aims to find a suitable buyer and facilitate the transfer.Despite the potential financial loss, Manchester United supporters may view Antony’s departure as a necessary step to realign the squad with their long-term goals. The involvement of INEOS, known for making pragmatic decisions, in this process may signal a proactive approach from the club in addressing personnel issues and reshaping the team for future success.It sounds like Manchester United are facing quite a challenge with Antony’s situation. The lack of concrete interest coupled with his inconsistent performance and high wages make his departure complex. Replacing him with Michael Olise indicates United’s commitment to rejuvenating their squad. The involvement of INEOS might bring a pragmatic approach to resolving personnel issues and reshaping the team.
