Sky Sports reporter: Man Utd hold "interest" in signing £68m star as well as Frenkie de Jong

Manchester United remain interested in signing Ajax striker Antony this summer amid doubts over the future of Cristiano Ronaldo, according to Sky Sports reporter Dharmesh Sheth. 

Erik ten Hag is in the process of shaping the Red Devils to his liking ahead of the 2022-23 campaign and fresh faces could yet be added to his set-up. 

The first new face to arrive through the doors at Old Trafford was Feyenoord left-back Tyrell Malacia to provide competition for Luke Shaw after a £13 million fee was agreed. 

A free agent came next in the form of experienced playmaker Christian Eriksen. There were serious doubts over his future after his cardiac arrest during Euro 2020 but he showed he still had plenty to offer in the second half of last season with Brentford, providing four assists and a goal in 11 games.

Ten Hag pounced on the 30-year-old after he became available and will likely be hoping he can ease the burden currently on Bruno Fernandes. 

Lisandro Martinez became the third and most recent signing for the club this summer. The 24-year-old centre-back is very familiar with Ten Hag having spent three years at Ajax under him and the pair have been reunited at Old Trafford. 

But United remain interested in adding more names to their squad. They have been chasing another Ajax star in the form of forward Antony but have already seen a £51 million bid rejected with the Dutch champions eyeing a fee of £68 million. 

With Ronaldo still absent after it emerged he wants to leave the club this summer, it is a deal that could well become a more pressing priority as the days tick by.

Sheth, however, insists that United were interested in moving for Antony even before the saga with Ronaldo sparked into life this summer, but warned there
