The deal is finally official!
Ajax tried to do their best not to sell Antony so far. Manchester United raised their offer every time without caring about that. Erik ten Hag must have wanted to see him in his new team so much that the Red Devils fought for him till the end of the transfer window. The deal is worth 95 million euros + 5 million euros (bonuses). This is really huge but we are used to see Manchester United spending this much money for many players.
This is a club record fee for Ajax after selling Frenkie de Jong for 86 million. It is the second biggest signing for Manchester United as well after Pogba. However we all know what happened to Pogba at the end of the day. We will see if this Antony story will have a happy ending for the team.
Ajax is still a club that can give birth to talented players who can bring a lot of financial benefits to the club. In addition to financial benefits, Ajax Amsterdam also helps a lot in the development of player talent for the benefit of the player's home country football.
€95 Million plus €5 Million raised from the sale of Anthony to Manchester United including a fantastic fee for a player of Anthony's class who is 22 years old. Manchester United are willing to spend that much money to restore glory which cannot necessarily be realized with the presence of a player whose full name is Antony Matheus dos Santos.
Quite a successful business strategy.
it is definitely good news for manchester united, but i still think it is far from making manchester united a strong team capable of winning the premier league and being able to go to the champions league and go far, manchester united's biggest problem is in attack , they've even been playing well lately, at least in the games I could watch I saw an improvement, but they're still not strong enough to be premier league champions, I say that because I buy between manchester united vs arsenal ( arsenal is better ), manchester united vs tottenham, (tottenham is better), manchester united vs Manchester City (City is much better), Manchester united vs Liverpool (liverpool is better, even after their defeat against manchester united). so based on this comparison i think machester united are still not strong enough to win the first league
PSV Eindhoven - FC Volendamthis game will be another good chance for PSV to get 3 points, I believe they will win this game and be on top, with jax who is selling players and is weakening and a good chance for PSV to be champion this season
Twente - Excelsiorthis is a very complicated game to predict who will be the winner, but if I were to place a bet I would choose BTTS
