Antony is looking to hold talks with Manchester United chiefs in respect of leaving the club.
The Brazilian joined United back in 2022 for £85 million under the leadership of Erik ten Hag.
At the time, Antony had made 82 appearances for Ajax, grabbing 24 goals and 22 assists in two years.
However, on his arrival at Old Trafford, the winger failed to live up to his hype.
Before the current season, the 24-year-old matched his number of appearances for Ajax with 82, however had only scored 11 goals with five assists.

Now, Antony has fallen further down the pecking order, with Amad Diallo being the favoured right-winger over him. As such, the Brazilian has only made five appearances this season.
In total, Antony has had 155 minutes on the pitch, or an average of 31 minutes per appearance, with only one goal.
Antony and his current situation at Old Trafford
UtdDistrict has reported that Antony is unhappy with his lack of game time this season. As such, the winger is taking matters into his own hands, wanting to speak to the United chiefs.
It’s understood that the 24-year-old will be looking to leave Old Trafford if he doesn’t get more game time under new boss Ruben Amorim. The main part of the conversations with the club chiefs and Amorim is to understand his role going forward.
Amorim likes to play a 3-4-3 formation, with dynamic wingers working the length of the pitch. So, if Antony wants to get more game time, he’ll have to show his adaptability in training. Antony could work on playing more centrally, however, a change in his playstyle is needed either way.
The 24-year-old is one of four players that Amorim has already highlighted as surplus to requirements.
With Amorim already having no interest in using Antony, the Brazilian will have to pull off something dramatic in training to earn his game-time.
