Manchester United confirmed an agreement to sign Antony from Ajax, MySportDab reports.
Antony will be heading to Manchester United finally this summer window after an agreement with Ajax.
The Brazilian has been long linked with a move to Old Trafford since Erik Ten Hag was announced as their new manager last season.
The deal didn’t just happen immediately as several clubs also made their interest known but didn’t get to make a move happen.
Chelsea were among one of the teams who wanted to sign the attacker but they dropped out due to the amount his club was demanding.
Manchester United made several offers which the Netherlands club turned down as they saw it as too small.
More offers were made until they finally reached an agreement of €95 million and a potential €5 million for the whole deal to be €100 million.
Manchester United confirmed via their official website that they have reached an agreement to sign Antony from Ajax.
Here Is What Was Said:
“Manchester United has reached agreement with Ajax for the transfer of Antony, subject to a medical, player terms being finalised, and international clearance.
“Antony has 31 goals and 27 assists in 134 club appearances for Ajax and Sao Paulo, and two goals and two assists in nine senior appearances for his native Brazil.
“He has won two Eredivisie titles, and a gold medal in the 2020 Summer Olympics.
Antony is another addition with Manchester United just completing the move for Casemiro from Real Madrid.
Martin Dubravka is also set to make a move to Old Trafford this summer window as their backup goalkeeper.
