SHOCKING NEWS: Coming Live From Fabrizio Romano, Man Utd Co-Owner Sir Jim Offers Shock Swap Deal To Sign £86million Star For Man Utd. In The Summer Transfer Window, Manchester United Has Not Yet Strengthened Their Midfield, And Once Again, Frenkie De Jong’s Name Is In The Spotlight. According To Reports, Sir Jim Has Offered A Swap Deal Involving Antony And Amad Diallo To Finally Sign Frenkie De Jong For Man Utd As They Look To Strengthen Their Midfield Before The Season Starts. Manchester United Offers One Of Anthony Or Amad Diallo To Barcelona For De Jong.

In the summer transfer window, Manchester United has not yet strengthened their midfield, and once again, Frenkie de Jong’s name is in the spotlight.

Erik ten Hag, who handled the midfielder at Ajax before he moved for Barca, has been a dream of the £86 million Dutch international.Man Utd was able to reach an agreement to sign the Oranje star from the Catalan giants for 80 million euros two years ago; nevertheless, the player chose to remain at the Nou Camp.

Now, Ten Hag has reportedly proposed a swap deal involving Antony to sign Frenkie De Jong for Manchester United, according to Spanish source Nacional.Under the Netherlands manager at Ajax, the Brazilian international was a hit, but in the Premier League, he has been a complete bust.

After leaving the Eredivisie team for United in a move worth £86 million, Antony scored just once in 29 league games during the previous season.Therefore, it comes as a great surprise that Ten Hag made what is likely the largest flop in the team in order to get De Jong, one of the most crucial players for Barca.

The fact that the Blaugrana are reportedly not interested in Antony—they do want to sign a winger, but the South American does not suit the mold—is not shocking.To be fair, Barca already has Raphinha as a backup and Lamine Yamal on the right flank, both of whom are far superior to the winger at Old Trafford.

Man Utd should therefore attempt a different approach in order to have any chance of landing De Jong.The speculation around Manchester United and Frenkie de Jong continues, with Erik ten Hag reportedly interested in bringing the Dutch international to Old Trafford. The proposed swap deal involving Antony for De Jong reflects Ten Hag’s attempt to leverage his former Ajax connections to bolster United’s midfield. However, several factors complicate this scenario:

1. **Antony’s Underperformance**: Antony has struggled to make an impact in the Premier League, scoring only once in 29 league appearances last season. This diminishes his value in any potential swap deal.

2. **Barcelona’s Lack of Interest**: Barcelona reportedly does not see Antony fitting into their plans, with existing options like Raphinha and Lamine Yamal already competing for the right-wing position.

3. **De Jong’s Importance to Barca**: De Jong remains a key player for Barcelona, making it unlikely they would part with him easily, especially not in a swap for Antony.

Given these challenges, Manchester United may need to explore alternative strategies, potentially offering other players or focusing on different midfield targets to strengthen their squad effectively.
