Man Utd Antony offered escape route as Brazilian star agent makes bold claim

Manchester United winger Antony could be out of Old Trafford this January as his agent reveals the Brazilian would accept a loan move this month.

Antony has failed to impress at Old Trafford despite joining the club in an £86million move in September 2022. This season has been more like woeful for Antony who has scored only once – in the Carabao Cup at Barnsley.

The Brazilian has not registered a goal in the Premier League since April 2023 and is yet to even notch an assist this term. The chances of turning around his fortunes suffered a serious blow with Ruben Amorim’s arrival as manager.

He is yet to start a top-flight game under Amorim and has been left on the bench or out of the squad in five of his nine Premier League matches in charge.

There are indications that things will not change anytime soon and according to the Daily Mail, Olympiacos are now lining up a loan move for the 24-year-old.

Amorim is reportedly pleased to let him leave and this has caught the attention of several clubs in Europe.

The Brazilian’s agent Junior Pedroso recently made a come-and-get-me plea on his client’s behalf.

“Many clubs have approached us for Antony’s move in January,” Pedroso told GiveMeSport. said. “These clubs wanted to understand the situation for Antony, so I can confirm that there’s concrete interest.

“I can say that Antony’s future is very much tied to Manchester United’s interests. If the club thinks it would be a good idea to loan Antony out in January so he can get more minutes and regain his trust, we will work together on that option.

“Otherwise, Antony is working hard to regain his place and show his best skills under the new coach Ruben Amorim.”

Olympiacos would ‘welcome’ Antony’s arrival as they look to maintain their title bid. They currently sit top of the Greek Super League, though fierce rivals Panathinaikos are only two points behind them.
