Official: Man United agree €100m Antony deal with Ajax

Manchester United and Ajax have agreed on a deal for the sale of Antony, the English club announced today.

The 22-year-old Brazilian is already in Manchester and in the final stages of finalising a five-year contract.

The deal will cost United a total of €100m — €95m guaranteed fee plus €5m in add-ons — making him the club’s second most expensive signing ever, after Paul Pogba.

“Manchester United has reached agreement with Ajax for the transfer of Antony, subject to a medical, player terms being finalised, and international clearance,” the Premier League giants stated on their official website today.

“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.”
