Manchester United have decided to part ways with winger Antony in January as they prepare for a fresh start under new manager Ruben Amorim.

Signed for over £81.3 million in 2022 during Erik ten Hag's tenure, Antony has struggled to live up to expectations at Old Trafford. Despite his impressive performances for Ajax in the Eredivisie, the 24-year-old has failed to replicate that form in the Premier League, prompting the club to consider cutting their losses.

Christian Eriksen remains a transfer target for Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers as his Manchester United exit appears increasingly likely.

Despite the arrival of new boss Ruben Amorim, reports suggest Eriksen is still set to depart Old Trafford. This development could pave the way for Rodgers, who has admired the Danish midfielder since his time at Leicester City, to secure his services. The 32-year-old has been one of United’s few bright spots this season, contributing seven goal involvements, but with his contract expiring at the end of the campaign, a move seems imminent.

However, negotiations were hindered by the Nigerian striker’s high wage demands. Chelsea’s transfer strategy typically focuses on signing young, unproven talents who command more modest salaries, making the Osimhen deal particularly challenging to finalize.
