There were several surprises during Ruben Amorim’s first Manchester United training session, as the new head coach appeared to be adamant about sticking to his preferred 3-4-3 formation.

In addition to adding new players, the Portuguese changed several players’ positions, favoring Antony in the right wing-back position.

Erik ten Hag signed the Brazilian as a right winger, but he has had a terrible time at Old Trafford. If he doesn’t impress the Portuguese coach in this new role, he may not be able to stay at Manchester.

He doesn’t appear to have a place in the attacking sections of the field, and the player has previously stated that he will want to leave if his playing time doesn’t increase.

The original £86 million investment made by United is predicted to have a significant financial impact on Antony’s future, although few teams have submitted a serious bid.

According to a recent report by The Peoples Person, the Red Devils are also open to trade agreements. The 24-year-old might help the team get Brazilian sensation Lorran of Flamengo.

According to Defensa Central, the 20-time English league champions may send Antony to Real Madrid in exchange for Turkish phenom Arda Guler, but it is not the only exchange agreement in the works.

United may attempt to capitalize on the fact that the 19-year-old, who has only started three games this season, is apparently dissatisfied with his lack of playing time.

Since his summer transfer in 2023, Guler has started eight games, and Los Blancos know that if they make the Turkiye international available for a transfer, a lot of teams could jump at the chance.

Guler-Antony trade agreementThey have great expectations for the former Fenerbahce star, but they have no plans to move him on. Furthermore, they most definitely do not want Antony to reciprocate.

United plans to make significant adjustments in January in response to Amorim’s recent arrival. The first one concerns Antony, one of the team’s highest-paid players, and his future.

The Manchester club is seeking for a young, talented right-winger who fits in well with Arda Güler, the player they would like to trade for Antony, because they do not want to keep the Brazilian in the squad.

In actuality, United has taken note of the fact that the Turkish player is not enjoying the level of visibility he would like at the beginning of the season.

Real is expected to turn down United’s offer.”At Chamartín, they are not currently thinking about Arda Güler leaving, much less signing Antony.They are aware that Arda Güler would be approached by a number of teams in January. But the response will always be the same: “Arda, don’t touch her.”

If the swap agreement doesn’t work out, perhaps United should make another loan offer. Given Guler’s talent and Antony’s form, Real’s overwhelming negative reaction was always inevitable.

The former Ajax player makes £200,000 a week (per capology), so a move for Antony would free up a lot of space on United’s pay sheet.

Antony has seen a dramatic drop from being viewed as Mohamed Salah’s replacement at Liverpool to being marginalized at United. He will be anxious to get Amorim’s attention during training in order to extend his time at United.
