Manchester United are reportedly close to finally agreeing a transfer deal with Ajax for Brazilian winger Antony.
According to Dharmesh Sheth of Sky Sports, Man Utd and Ajax look set to agree a fee of around €100million, including add-ons and bonuses, while the player agreeing personal terms shouldn’t be an issue.
Sheth adds that this could see the deal accelerate in the next 24-48 hours, so it looks like Red Devils fans can finally start to get excited about this one after weeks of speculation involving Antony and similar attacking players.
