Manchester United let four wingers leave the club this summer.
These were: Jadon Sancho, Facundo Pellistri, Omari Forson and Mason Greenwood.
With reports that Antony’s future could be in doubt, United may look to add depth in the position in next summer’s window.
They have already brought talent into the academy team, signing right-winger Samuel Lusale from Crystal Palace.
United are also close to finalising the purchase of 16-year-old forward Chido Obi-Martin from Arsenal.

However, the Red Devils were beaten to one of their academy targets by Liverpool this summer.
United showed interest in 16-year-old Rio Ngumoha, but he instead chose to play for their arch rivals in Merseyside.
Ngumoha is a left-winger who broke through the ranks at Chelsea’s youth system.
He has appeared for England’s U15 and U16 teams and now plays for Liverpool’s U18 team.
United tried to convince Ngumoha to come to Old Trafford, presenting detailed plans for his future development, according to CaughtOffside.
However, Ngumoha still decided to join Liverpool, as their project and development plan resonated more with the winger.

Chelsea tried their best to hold onto the teenager, who is regarded as one of the best forwards in the country at his age.
They had no intention to let him leave, but Ngumoha had his eyes set on playing for Liverpool.
Although this may seem like a missed opportunity, United will still be content with the state of their U18 team.
Last season, they secured a domestic treble, winning the U18 National Premier League, Premier League North title and the Premier League Cup.
This season, United U18 sit second in their league, having won all four games.
They are a point off Derby U18 in first, with a game in hand, and look set to have another successful campaign.
