WHAT HAPPENED?

While intermediaries are said to be working on finding the 24-year-old a new club, United have yet to receive a single offer. While new manager Ruben Amorim is said to be a fan of the player's ability, he is happy to move him on. Casemiro has also been placed on the transfer list amid interest from Saudi Arabia.

Antony is tied to United until 2027, and it remains to be seen if the Red Devils can find a way to move him on this month. If not, they may have to wait until the summer but it remains unclear if there will be much interest in a player on huge wages.
