Manchester United transfer news RECAP Ajax 'expect' £80m Antony bid plus Frenkie de Jong to Man United latest

Take a look back at the Man United news, views and transfer rumours from the Manchester Evening News.

Goals either side of the half-time interval from Jadon Sancho and Marcus Rashford fired United into a two-goal lead before Mohamed Salah reduced the deficit late on with a close-range header. United were full value for the victory, producing their best performance in several months to secure their first win of the Erik ten Hag era.

It capped off a successful evening for the club, as the signing of Real Madrid midfielder Casemiro was confirmed just ahead of kick-off, meaning the Brazilian was presented to the Old Trafford faithful. He has become the club's fourth signing of the summer transfer window, following the earlier arrivals of Lisandro Martinez, Tyrell Malacia and Christian Eriksen.

United, however, are still on the hunt for more arrivals ahead of the transfer window closing in just over a week's time. Ten Hag remains keen to strengthen his attacking options and reports connecting Ajax ace Antony with a move to M16 continue to gather significant pace

The Reds have been on the hunt for a new right-sided winger for much of the summer and links with the Ajax star have resurfaced over the past week or so.

Antony sends Lisandro Martinez message amid Manchester United transfer interest

Manchester United transfer target Antony has sent a message to former Ajax teammate Lisandro Martinez.

Antony did not feature for Ajax at the weekend against Sparta Rotterdam. Ajax boss Alfred Schreuder confirmed that Antony had told him he was 'not 100 per cent' ready to play for his side.

Schreuder added that he was confident the Brazilian would remain at the club as long as they are playing in the Champions League. However, the saga took another turn on Monday night when the 22-year-old and his agent, Emerson Santos, were pictured on the latter's Instagram watching the United game. The post would subsequently be removed from the social media platform.
