Background
Sir Jim Ratcliffe, the chief of INEOS, is reportedly planning a significant overhaul at Manchester United.
Financial Objective
Ratcliffe aims to raise £100 million through player sales.
Targeted Player
The first player on the list for sale is Mason Greenwood, who is currently on loan at Getafe. Greenwood had faced charges last year, but they were dropped. Manchester United has decided it’s in the club’s best interest for Greenwood to continue his career elsewhere.
Performance at Getafe
Despite the off-field controversy, Greenwood has performed well at Getafe, scoring three goals and assisting four in 16 La Liga appearances. Barcelona and Atletico Madrid are reportedly interested in signing him.
List of Potential Sales
Other players on the potential sale list include academy graduates like Scott McTominay, Hannibal Mejbri, and Alvaro Fernandez, as well as first-team members Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Casemiro, Jadon Sancho, and Antony.
Antony’s Situation
Antony, a winger for Manchester United, has struggled to impress this season. There are rumors of a potential move away, with his agent, Junior Pedros, stating that as of now, Manchester United has not communicated any interest in transferring him in either the January or summer window.
Potential Destination for Antony
Saudi Arabia is suggested as a potential destination for Antony. This move could help Manchester United recoup as much as possible for the £80 million signing.
Antony’s Performance and Transfer Status
Antony joined Manchester United in the summer of 2022, scoring eight goals and assisting three since then. However, he has failed to start the team’s last two matches across competitions
