According to rumours, MANCHESTER UNITED is willing to allow Antony to go on loan in order to entice another player.
Despite having a slow start to the season, the Red Devils defeated Fulham 1-0 yesterday.
Even if the outcome was favorable, Antony had a rough afternoon because of the criticism he received from the crowd before he was replaced by Facundo Pellistri after 63 minutes.
And it’s said that Man Utd are tired of their £85.5 million disaster and may allow him to leave Old Trafford.
Since Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s 25% buyout is still pending, the team will have to fight financial fair play regulations until they receive the additional funding.
In January, United wants to add more offensive alternatives, but they can only consider bargain purchases.
As a result, they are thinking of making a bid for Gabriel Barbosa, a Flamengo star.
According to The Mirror, he is up for £20 million, and United may clinch the deal by pressuring Antony to turn down an offer.
Nicknamed Gabigol, Barbosa has scored 20 goals in 55 games this season.
Additionally, the striker has 18 Brazil caps under his belt.
He was originally connected to a West Ham transfer.
In contrast, Antony has made eleven appearances this season without scoring or dishing up an assist.
