Erik ten Hag wants to bolster Manchester United's attacking options this summer — and he knows the perfect player to do so. Antony has been on the Dutchman's radar during this transfer window and when you look at the statistics, it's clear why United are interested.

Ten Hag has openly admitted the importance of strengthening his forward line and with the news that Antony's representative have reportedly landed in Manchester for talks, the Ajax winger could well be on his way to Old Trafford.

The Brazilian has attracted interest from United partly because of the admiration from his former manager, but also due to his scintillating form in the Eredivisie.

He is a naturally entertaining player to watch and is full of classical Brazilian flair that allows him to utilise his natural pace and dribbling ability to beat his man.
