Antony to Man Utd: Ajax want at least €100m for Brazilian winger ... (Sky Sports)

Ajax rejected Manchester Uniteds £76.3m (€90m) bid for Brazil international Antony; winger worked with Erik Ten Hag during United managers time with ...

"We at Ajax are always trying to strive for the top," added Ten Hag. "For sure, we hope he will be the next star of Ajax." We are playing in the Champions League and I don't think Manchester United are." You can also catch up with the ins, outs and analysis on Sky Sports News. "Antony has made it clear he wants to leave Ajax and join United, though. I understand the lad," Schreuder said after Ajax's win on Sunday. Others have already arrived (but) Ajax always refuses with the argument it only has five days to replace (me). Ajax will always be in my heart." "But he plays for Ajax, so these clubs do come knocking on the door. Why should they not try to raise it as far as they can, simply because they might be at a disadvantage as well? "During the window months, meetings concluded including a proposal from Ajax for contract renewal. I need this to continue performing at a high level.

Manchester United Confirmed Lineup vs Southampton: Casemiro... (The Hard Tackle)

Casemiro and Cristiano Ronaldo are on the bench, as the starting eleven remains unchanged for Manchester United's meeting with Southampton.

Marcus Rashford will thus spearhead the Manchester United attack against Southampton, with Jadon Sancho and Anthony Elanga being the two wide men, leaving Ronaldo as a possible substitute. The midfield unit surprisingly does not see a change, with Casemiro on the bench. David de Gea retains his spot between the sticks, with Tom Heaton being the backup option on the bench.

Manchester United set to increase bid in order to seal Antony transfer (The Peoples Person)

Manchester United have three points to show after as many games in the Premier League and it has been far from smooth sailing for new manager Erik ten Hag.

“Antony is becoming restless at the two clubs’ failure to agree a fee for him. There are doubts whether United will go past the €100 million threshold but another increased bid is likely. [Casemiro](https://thepeoplesperson.com/2022/08/27/casemiro-to-wear-number-18-for-manchester-united-251802/) deal was also quite pricey as United entered negotiations quite late. But this is not expected to stop United’s pursuit of the Brazilian winger. They took their time before managing to get free agent Christian Eriksen to sign on the dotted lines. The Dutchman is facing the same issues which at one point had plagued his predecessors.

He has a bundle of tricks and will open things up for them. ’I think they have done that all summer, we have seen that with [Frenkie] De Jong. That has dragged on all summer because that is a player that he has identified and that he wants. He is at a good club in Ajax, don’t get me wrong. ’The one I would say is, is he good enough? Ferdinand backed new United boss Erik ten Hag to build a team that 'suits his character' and stated that they will have to go 'above and beyond' if they are to land the Brazilian star.

On Monday, Jadon Sancho and Marcus Rashford-inspired performance ensured the Red Devils overpowered Jurgen Klopp’s men in a 2-1 win at Old Trafford. Manchester United are hoping to build on their impressive victory against arch-rivals, Liverpool when they travel to Saint Mary’s Stadium to face Southampton on Saturday. The Red Devils got their first win of the season- a win that took United off the bottom of the table after two humiliating losses earlier in the season( 2-1 home loss to Brighton and Hove Albion as well as 4-0 humiliation against Brentford).

Southampton 0 Manchester United 1 (Manchester United)

Manchester United earned the first away victory of the season by defeating Southampton 1-0 in the Premier League's early Saturday game.

Back to Back wins… Prior to the match, the Saints had rescued four points from losing positions in their previous two outings and were looking to repeat a turnaround. Armstrong 63), A. United stormed out of the blocks after the interval, heaping early pressure on the home side and were rewarded 10 minutes following the restart. However, the best opportunity fell to Armel Bella-Kotchap. A Diogo Dalot cross caused mayhem in the penalty area as the Southampton keeper Gavin Bazunu and his defence somehow frantically denied Bruno Fernandes the chance to head home, before thwarting Anthony Elanga, Fernandes again and then Christian Eriksen – all from around the six-yard box.

Erik ten Hag got the result he wanted against Southampton as Manchester United made it two wins from two. That made it a successful week for the Dutch coach ...

That meant Marcus Rashford kept his place in the starting line-up, but he looked isolated up front and didn’t show as an option when we had the ball in Southampton’s half. The team defended well and the performance was worthy of a clean sheet. There is also lots of room for improvement and it’s clear we are lacking options in the attacking department.

Things we learned from Southampton v Man Utd (Manchester United)

The Reds built on Monday' fantastic win against Liverpool to rack up our first away win of the Premier League season - and a first competitive victory away from ...

Dalot’s pinpoint assist proved to be match-winning for United at a key point of the game. Perhaps most impressively of all, he audibly dictated when his teammates needed to tighten up through the centre. United’s new signing only entered the pitch with 10 minutes to go, and he was absolutely everywhere! Saints couldn’t deal with the sheer numbers in the box as Fernandes was left wide open on the edge for his magic moment. The Portuguese right-back stayed composed, recovered possession and offered a physical presence throughout. The 23-year-old’s crunching tackle down the wing gave him an early boost of confidence and he never looked back. Another Elanga run inside set the goal in motion by freeing up space for Dalot, Sancho and Bruno in one fell swoop. Bruno’s ability to link passing moves together brought the likes of Sancho and Marcus Rashford into the game when they would have otherwise been completely isolated. There was a 15-minute spell just after half-time where our manager’s intelligence changed the course of the game. His calmness on the ball and ability to pick a simple pass also aided us in some tight positions as Southampton overloaded the flanks. He also showed real desire to bomb forward and aid the attack. Fernandes’s lethal winner sealed the win, in what was his second consecutive match wearing the captain's armband.

Manchester United have two Antony transfer agreements and now ... (Daily Express)

MANCHESTER UNITED are hoping to sign Antony from Ajax before the summer transfer window slams shut, despite his club making things difficult.

And Antony recently went public as he attempts to secure a move away. Personal terms have been wrapped up, with the Samba star eager to be strutting his stuff in the Premier League. The Samba star is [Erik ten Hag](/latest/erik-ten-hag)’s top target. [Manchester United](/latest/manchester-united-fc) remain hopeful of signing Antony, despite seeing a huge £76million bid for the Brazil international turned down by Ajax. Now, the onus is on United to get a third agreement when it comes to the 22-year-old - with two in the bag already. And John Murtough and Ten Hag are on the same page when it comes to Antony, which is why the Red Devils are continuing negotiations with Ajax in the hope they’ll end up buckling.
