Man Utd looking to offload Antony with £86m flop keen on exit after losing place in team
MANCHESTER UNITED flop Antony is pushing for a loan move away from Old Trafford and may have played his last game for the club.
SunSport can reveal that Jose Mourinho’s Fenerbahce remain in pole position to land the Brazilian winger.

But Antony’s former club Ajax are also monitoring the situation – as well as teams in Spain, France and Saudi Arabia.
The player has told Man Utd he wants out and the club are believed to be keen to push through a loan deal.
The Turkish transfer window is open until Friday.
But any permanent departure is not likely to happen until next summer.
Antony joined the Red Devils for £85.5million two years ago on a five-year deal worth a reported £200,000 per week.
But he has failed to settle at Old Trafford and has played just one minute so far in the Premier League this season.
The 24-year-old has found himself behind the likes of Marcus Rashford, Alejandro Garnacho and Amad Diallo in the pecking order – though Jadon Sancho has now left the club.
In total, Antony has played 83 times for the Man Utd, scoring 11 goals.

Erik ten Hag pushed to sign the star after working with him at Ajax.
But a loan switch is now seen as a pathway to revitalising his career and Mourinho’s Fenerbahce could be the perfect place for that.
He will team-up with fellow ex-United star Fred should he join the Turkish Super Lig giants.
They are set to face United in the Europa League on October 24.
