ToggleManchester United spent over £180 million (€216m/$228.6m) on players in the summer having acquired Matthijs de Ligt, Leny Yoro, Manuel Ugarte, Joshua Zirkzee and Noussair Mazraoui. This spending spree came after a rather disappointing 2023-24 season as INEOS looked to give Erik ten Hag more firepower. However, after an abysmal start to the season, the Red Devils sacked the Dutchman and have now brought in Amorim.

Amorim's appointment has seen calls for greater investments to support the Portuguese coach, but their summer spending has left them short on any transfer budget for January. As such, the Red Devils are now looking to make sales this winter to bring in funds for their new head coach.
As per , Antony would be the 'most obvious' candidate to be sold this winter. The Brazilian has not performed well since his mega-money move to Old Trafford in 2022, and Amorim has been trying to reshape him into a wing-back. However, if United can find a buyer ready to pay enough, an exit seems to be the most likely scenario. They would likely have to take a loss on the £82m (€98.5m/$104m) investment they paid to sign him from Ajax.
Having played against Bodo/Glimt as a right-wing-back, Antony was not terrible but did not have as much influence as Amorim would have been hoping. He is unlikely to start when Everton head to Old Trafford on Sunday.
