    **Summary**

    **Antony**

    – Manchester United are open to letting their £86million winger **Antony go out on loan in January to help secure a permanent move** for the Brazilian **next summer.**

    – United sources wouldn’t be drawn on Antony’s future, but **Confidential understands that the club would listen to offers of around £40m for the 24-year-old.**

    – Antony is still fourth in the pecking order behind Marcus Rashford, Alejandro Garnacho and Amad Diallo.

    – By sending Antony out on loan in January to get more game time elsewhere, United may be able to attract more interest in the player next summer.

    **Targets turned off by slow start**

    – United’s spluttering start to the season could have consequences in the transfer market in January and next summer.

    **- Confidential knows of two recent targets who are having second thoughts about moving to Old Trafford**

    **Eriksen**

    – Confidential understands that figures at United are relaxed about the current situation and that no decision has been made either way on Eriksen’s future.

    – The 32-year-old’s contract at Old Trafford expires at the end of the season and while the likelihood is that he departs then,

    **Glazer avoids awkward Neville moment**

    – Glazer arrived with Sir Jim Ratcliffe but the two men soon parted ways as he went off to attend a meeting of the fans’ advisory board while Ratcliffe held talks over the future of Old Trafford with taskforce members Gary Neville

    – It also avoided an awkward encounter between Glazer and Neville who has been one of the fiercest critics of the American owners in recent years, branding them ‘toxic’ and a ‘disgrace’ among other things.

    **Jonny’s badge of pride**

    – **Evans, along with Harry Maguire, enrolled to get his UEFA B qualification** which is now required to pursue a career in coaching and management.

    AWAY DAY PAIN

    – United fans are set for festive travel chaos after their game at Wolves was confirmed for Boxing Day and moved to the 5:30pm slot.

    – Supporters heading to Molineux will be unable to get to Wolverhampton by train as there are no services from Manchester before or after the match, while other public transport options are also severely limited.

  2. We couldn’t even get 40m for Greenwood or Sancho.
    No chance Antony on 200k per week is going for anything close to that.

  3. They said the same thing about Sancho but ended up loaning him out with a obligation for 20-25 mil. If they really want to sell him they could go lower. Unless it would affect our PSR a lot

  4. It’s more likely that we will pay 40M to get rid of him rather than someone paying 40M for him. We let Donny go for less than one million.

  5. Let’s put this into context on the right wing for United.

    In 1991, Fergie brought in Kancheskis for 650k, won his first PL and sold him to Everton for 5 mil.

    Replaced Kanchelskis with Beckham from the academy, wont the treble and sold to Madrid for 25 mil.

    Replaced Beckham with Ronaldo for 12 mil, won the CL for 2nd time, sold him to Real for world record fees of 80 mil.

    Replaced Ronaldo with Valencia for 16 mil, won United the 20th PL and Fergie retired.

    ETH brought Antony in for 86 mil, not good enough and Ineos cancelled Fergie ambassador role for cost cutting.

  6. This is why “write off this season” is brain dead. Good players don’t want to come to a mid table club.

  7. **Evans, along with Harry Maguire, enrolled to get his UEFA B qualification** which is now required to pursue a career in coaching and management

    Evans for gaffer.

    I disagree this is a slow start. This is the norm under ETH, calling is slow suggests it’s abnormal or might improve.

    As if they are talking to our transfer targets and not plastering it all over the place these cunts know nothing.

    The inoes ship is tight 

  10. I do think anybody that manutd brings in will automatically become a low budget version of themselves. I dunno why maybe they think manutd is a retirement place.
