Today Transfer news: Anthony Refuses to leave Manchester United
Manchester United’s 100 million euro winger Anthony Santos made extra efforts during the international match day. The “Compass” hopes to reconquer his master Tenhage and let the new boss Sir Jim Ratcliffe not clean him from the summer transfer window. Anthony refused to admit defeat, and he thought he could still be reborn.
The Brazilian winger had a difficult second season at Old Trafford. His performance was poor, and the fans were dissatisfied that the huge transfer fee paid by Manchester United was not rewarded. Anthony has only scored 10 goals so far, only two goals this season, and zero goals and zero assists in the Premier League.
However, in the FA Cup quarter-finals before the international game break, Anthony didled Liverpool with his right foot, saving Manchester United, and Tenhager’s team finally advanced in overtime. This inspired the Brazilian winger, who is determined to turn his shape around and has been practicing on his own during the international competition day.
Anthony was not selected for the Brazilian team’s friendly match with England and Spain, which was a normal result. But instead of vacationing at home, he went to the Madeira Islands in Portugal for a personal training program at his own expense.
It is the hometown of superstar Cristiano Ronaldo, with a branch of Fesio, a well-known European training center, which focuses on rehabilitation, physical therapy and helping athletes reach the peak level of physical performance.
His social media account confirmed Anthony’s arrival and praised the talent of Manchester United’s winger. However, Anthony’s situation is obviously not as good as the training center said.
Alejandro Ganacho has replaced him as the main right winger. Even if Anthony scores a goal against Liverpool, it is difficult to squeeze into the starting lineup.
The Brazilian left-footed right-winger will only strive to seize the opportunity to play as a substitute and prove that he still has contributed. After scoring against Liverpool, Anthony also emphasized his determination to make progress: “This is a period that requires a lot of learning. I try to learn from every criticism and understand what I can improve. I have been working hard to develop and show my football on the court. I have also been training my right foot to make it better. I know my potential and why Manchester United bought me. I want to repay all this on the court.”
There is less and less time left for Anthony. The idea of Lajue and Inner is that once a player has joined for two years and has nothing to do, there is no need to keep him. According to the German transfer market network, Anthony is at the top of the top 10 players with the biggest decline in value. More than a year ago, his valuation was still 60 million euros, but now there are only 28 million euros left, plummeting by 32 million
But on this list, Anthony is not alone, and many Manchester United teammates accompany him. The value of Sancho dropped from 45 million euros to 25 million, ranking fourth; Mount fell from 60 million to 40 million, ranking seventh; and Rashford fell from 80 million to 60 million, ranking eighth. The three Manchester United stars all dropped by 20 million euros, and the ranking was ultimately determined according to the reduction rate.
