Former Manchester United star Dwight Yorke has urged the Red Devils to sell winger Antony in this ongoing January transfer window.
Yorke admitted that he felt sorry for the Brazilian because he was not performing well at Old Trafford.
Antony has largely struggled since joining Erik ten Hag’s side from Aja for £86 million in the summer of 2022.
“I’m also not surprised that we are still talking about Antony and what he brings because he cost £86 million,” Yorke told Footy Accumulators.
“There are always going to be question marks when you sign a player for that much, especially when they’re playing for a club like Man United.
“Players like Antony will understand they are not performing as they should. It’s tough for him and I feel for him, but it’s both his and the club’s responsibility if things don’t work out.
“The club has to move these players on as quickly as possible or else they will find themselves in the same position every year—having average players signed to long contracts and not contributing what we expect of them.”
