Manchester United could have three options for their lineup should they sign Antony this summer. Reports in the Netherlands have suggested that the 22-year-old did not take part in training on Friday despite being at Ajax's complex.

It is unknown at this stage whether he has an injury or not but De Telegraaf have claimed that Ajax rejected an €80m bid from United for the Brazilian.

This has led to speculation that the player is 'striking' in order to seal a move to the Premier League. However, in an interview with De Telegraaf, Antony explained that he would still be interested in staying in Amsterdam although he could not offer any reassurances to the Ajax supporters.
