Fans are all saying the same thing as Man Utd transfer target Antony scores wonder goal for Ajax

MANCHESTER UNITED target Antony scored a wonder strike for Ajax as they brushed past Groningen this weekend.

And on Sunday, Antony, 22, showed United fans what they are missing.

He cut in from the right hand side and unleashed a rocket into the opposite top corner.

One fan said: "See why Ten Hag wanted this boy. A joy to watch. Man Utd get Antony."

Anther exclaimed: "Sign Antony already!!!!!!"

One joked: "Hey Man Utd, £200m + Martinez back for free, then we'll talk."

You can see why boss Ten Hag saw the Brazilian as a major target after working with him in Amsterdam last term.

Tottenham flop Steven Bergwijn also scored a hat-trick, but it was Antony's cracker that has fans talking after Ajax thumped Groningen 6-1.

It was an amazing way for the forward to get off the mark in this season's Eredivisie.

With the 22-year-old under contract until 2025, Ajax are under no pressure to sell this summer.

They have already sold Lisandro Martinez to United, as well as flogging Sebastien Haller, Ryan Gravenberch and Nicolas Tagliafico for a combined £100m.

Martinez was hauled off at half time on Saturday as the Red Devils were thumped 4-0 at Brentford.

And the Dutch gaffer has demanded the squad comes in for extra training after the shambolic 4-0 defeat to Brentford.

The players were due to have a day off following the trip to London.

But SunSport understands Ten Hag is forcing his players into Carrington for an extra training session.
