Manchester United flop Antony has reportedly emerged as a leading target for Al-Nassr as they seek to reunite the Brazilian with Cristiano Ronaldo.

Per Football Insider, Antony is being lined up by Al-Nassr as they seek a new winger this summer, with an initial approach already made.

The Saudi Arabian club had been interested in Barcelona’s Raphinha, but have now reportedly switched their attention to Antony, who played alongside Ronaldo for the Red Devils in the first half of the 2022-23 season.

Antony has endured a nightmare spell at United, having arrived for a staggering £85m ($108m) fee in 2022.

In 82 appearances he has registered just 16 goal involvements, and United are aware they are likely to have to absorb a major loss when he finally does move on.

While United would prefer to sell Antony this summer, Football Insider claims they are open to allowing him to leave on loan, provided his £100,000-per-week wages are covered.

His contract still has three years left to run so a temporary move may prove more financially viable.
