ANTONY is on the brink of becoming an £84million Manchester United signing.
The Old Trafford club are understood to have met Ajax's huge asking price for the Brazil winger, 22, who has been a summer-long target of new United boss Erik ten Hag.
The Prem giants are confident they can get a deal over the line with a down-payment of £74m, plus a further £10m in potential add-ons.
It will bring United's summer spending to a colossal £205.2m after their capture of Brazil midfielder Casemiro for £60m from Real Madrid.
They also got Argentine centre-half Lisandro Martinez for £48.3m from Ajax and Dutch left-back Tyrell Malacia for £12.9m from Feyenoord.
The club also snapped-up free-agent Christian Eriksen as well.
Antony's total fee is just £1m less than United's club-record £85m for defender Harry Maguire.
But United have not stopped splashing out yet.
Former Ajax boss Ten Hag plans to spend even more and go Dutch again - having also targeted PSV Eindhoven attacker Cody Gakpo.
The star, 23, is valued at £42m.
Ten Hag also wants Frankfurt goalkeeper Kevin Trapp, 32, as cover for David de Gea but has been in talks with Newcastle's Martin Dubravka after being outpriced by the German side.
United defender Eric Bailly signed for Marseille in a loan deal for £8.4m and a potential transfer fee at the end of the season of £6m.
Aaron Wan-Bissaka, who cost £45m from Crystal Palace, could head back there on loan.

Great News. Welcome to City of Dreams Antony. Persistant pays after all. Now we have 3 more to do. GK,RB,CF. If Memphis is signed, then Gakpo looks difficult. But we can have both if Ronaldo leaves to play in CL. Sign Aaron as RB, as AWB moving back to Palace on loan. Dubravka is certain as understudy to Gea.Common Reds GGMU.
These are my exact wishful analysis about our transfer businesses

the coach should hav kept wan-bissaka to keep pushing dalot , because dalot himself is not that good to rely on unless if the coach is very sure of getting another better right back before the window closes.

Yeah, Anthony’s is a left footed, and sancho preferred his right foot … so that means both would have to switch positions and work well for the team .
