Man Utd attacker has 'concrete interest' ahead of January
Manchester United attacker Antony is attracting concrete interest from several clubs ahead of the winter transfer window, according to his agent.
The Brazil international has been a fringe player for the Red Devils over the past year and this has spread speculation that he could move on.
Speaking to Givemesport, agent Junior Pedroso has now clarified that many clubs have approached him regarding the availability of Antony.
He said: "Yes, many clubs have approached us for Antony's move in January. These clubs wanted to understand the situation for Antony, so I can confirm that there's concrete interest."
However, the representative added that United have never confirmed any desire to offload him and Antony remains a key part of their plans.
Antony has come off the bench regularly under manager Ruben Amorim and he will be aiming to start against Newcastle United on Monday.
Amad Diallo had a poor outing against Wolverhampton Wanderers on Boxing Day. The Ivorian could be replaced by the former Ajax attacker.
